Capgemini SE is a French multinational information technology services and consulting conglomerate headquartered in Paris. Generating over €22.4 billion in annual revenue with a workforce exceeding 420,000 employees worldwide, it operates across digital transformation, cloud architecture, engineering services, and business operations.
