On August 26, French IT giant Capgemini announced its agreement to acquire Hyderabad-based Cloud4C, a leading provider of hybrid cloud platform services. This move follows Capgemini’s recent $3.3 billion deal to acquire WNS, further highlighting its strategic focus on expanding AI and cloud capabilities.
The acquisition of Cloud4C is aimed at strengthening Capgemini’s position in the cloud managed services space. According to the company, the deal will help enhance its industry-specific frameworks, intellectual property, and generative AI (gen AI) offerings. It will also create immediate cross-selling opportunities and allow Capgemini to bring its broader service portfolio to Cloud4C’s existing clients.
Established in 2014, Cloud4C has a 1,600-member team with expertise in platform-based services, AI operations, and automation. Capgemini CEO Aiman Ezzat highlighted Cloud4C’s role as a premium global partner of RISE with SAP, making it a natural fit for Capgemini’s long-standing SAP partnership.
Cloud4C’s Chairman Sridhar Pinnapureddy added that joining Capgemini will help the firm scale its cloud migration and management platforms more effectively, leveraging innovation, automation, and global reach.
