history
Capgemini was founded in 1967 by Serge Kampf (born October 13, 1934 in Grenoble ; † March 15, 2016) as Société pour la Gestion des Entreprises et le Traitement de l'Information ( Sogeti , German company for corporate management and data processing ). From 1973 there was a majority stake (CAP, Center d'analysis et de Programmation) and takeover (Gemini Computers Systems) and in 1975 the name was changed to CAP Gemini Sogeti . In 1985 Cap Gemini Sogeti was listed on the Paris Stock Exchange.
After further acquisitions, the group was renamed Cap Gemini in 1996 . After taking over the consulting division of Ernst & Young in 2000, the company traded as Cap Gemini Ernst & Young . The group has been operating under the name Capgemini since 2004 . Sogeti remained a sister company within the group. In April 2020, Capgemini took over the engineering service provider Altran , thereby expanding its range of services to include engineering services and technology consulting.
