11 July 2016 will see the birth of a new player in consultancy: Wavestone.
Wavestone is a completely new consulting firm, forged from the combination of Solucom's and Kurt Salmon's European* business teams, which formally merged on 7 January 2016.
What marks out Wavestone is the breadth and depth of its expertise, and its ability to work seamlessly with its clients to inform and guide them on their most strategic decisions.
Wavestone draws on some 2,500 employees across four continents. It is a leading player in European independent consulting, and the number one in France.
Pascal Imbert, the company's Chairman, said: "We created Wavestone with a single goal in mind: to provide our clients with an offer that exists nowhere else in the market, drawing on the formidable potential created by combining our expertise. Strategy translated into action; from the core drivers of our clients' businesses into technology: that is Wavestone's ambition."
The change of Solucom's name will be submitted to shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 20 July 2016 at 08:30 in the Pavillon Gabriel (Paris, France).
