DATASOLUTION Receives the 2023 Growth Strategy Award at the Rendez-vous des ESN & ICT

At the 6th annual Rendez-vous des ESN & ICT event organized by Numeum and KPMG, DATASOLUTION was recognized for its growth strategy by winning the award in this category.

Steady and Significant Growth

The implementation of a matrix organization—structured by business unit and across multiple agencies, rather than hierarchically or geographically—along with a robust external growth strategy, supported by a well-established and continuously improved onboarding process, has provided DATASOLUTION has experienced steady and significant growth, reaching 36 million euros in consolidated revenue in 2022.

This award recognizes the strategic direction that impressed the jury and led them to honor DATASOLUTION.

This iconic event showcases several companies from this ecosystem across four categories: growth strategy, talent management, as well as CSR and innovation initiatives.

Since 2017, NUMEUM and KPMG—the leading professional association for digital companies and the international network of audit and consulting firms—have published the annual“Grand Angle ESN & ICT” study, which provides an overview of the vitality and trends of Digital Services Companies (ESN) and Technology Consulting and Engineering (ICT) companies in France.

In 2019, DATASOLUTION had already received the award for best financial transaction in connection with its acquisition of the Australian company Acid Green.

Another Accolade

This new “Growth Strategy” award is yet another accolade, as it brings with it recognition from the industry, visibility among colleagues at the agency, and serves as a mark of professionalism and reliability for its clients.

A Message from Numeum

The year 2022 was no exception for digital companies, which bore the brunt of geopolitical tensions and the resulting inflation. Nevertheless, the study reveals that most players posted double-digit growth, driven by a strategy focused on innovation. The talent shortage also remains a major challenge, at a time when talent is seeking a better balance between flexibility, technology, and impact.
