On October 3, 2024, Audensiel has expanded its North American footprint with the acquisition of the digital factory, cybersecurity, DevOps, and data activities of Montreal-based Maltem Canada. Maltem Canada, a recognized leader in digital transformation, is known for supporting clients with customized service centers and premium training services. This acquisition, which marks Audensiel’s first in North America, comes a year after the company opened its Montreal office, bringing together nearly 100 specialists under the Audensiel Canada banner.

With 1,800 employees and $290 million CAD in revenue, Audensiel aims to enhance its expertise in areas such as data/AI, digital factory, cloud, and cybersecurity. The acquisition strengthens Audensiel's presence in Canada and aligns with its strategic plan to provide digital transformation solutions to major Canadian companies.
