Global professional services company Accenture will acquire N3, a
tech-driven sales and demand-generation firm that helps clients drive
sales growth in an increasingly virtual environment, the company said,
without disclosing the financial terms of the acquisition.
The
acquisition adds approximately 2,200 employees to Accenture globally,
along with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML)
capabilities, Accenture said on Tuesday.
Founded in 2004, N3 serves many of the world's leading brands, such as Microsoft, Cisco and SAP.
The
company is headquartered in Atlanta, US with additional locations
including Brazil, Costa Rica, Ireland, Germany, Japan, Singapore and the
UK.
"Increasingly, B2B buyers expect the same ‘Amazon-like'
interactions they experience as consumers when purchasing far more
complex services -- a trend that's only accelerated in the current
pandemic," Manish Sharma, Group Chief Executive of Accenture Operations,
said in a statement.
"N3 provides the perfect combination of
skilled talent and technology to remove barriers and better influence
purchasing decisions at critical stages."
N3's model of
specialised sales talent -- across complex areas like cloud, software
platforms and 5G networks -- is supported by Cloud-based, AI /ML
technology that enables smarter, more efficient customer interactions
and sales conversions.
With Accenture's SynOps platform, these
combined capabilities could offer a client the ability to aggregate
millions of interaction points into actionable insights that drive sales
growth.
"We were drawn to Accenture, in large part, due to the
growth opportunity– as far as developing talent, advancing capabilities
and joining a company with strengths and values that complement our
own," said Jeff Laue, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of N3.
"Together,
our capabilities provide a differentiated, data-driven approach that
companies can use to sharpen their sales focus and deliver on the
ambition of sustainable growth."
