France-Based Capgemini Establishes Nashville, Tennessee, Operations Complex

11/23/2021
France-based Capgemini, a global IT consulting firm, will invest $20.1 million to establish operations in Nashville, Tennessee. The company expects to create a minimum of 500 new jobs, with projected growth of up to 1,000.

The delivery center will specifically focus on Capgemini’s capabilities in enterprise application modernization, artificial intelligence, machine learning and IoT solutions.

“The establishment of Capgemini’s new delivery center is a major milestone that will help us continue to accelerate our business in the U.S. The area is rich with diverse talent from nearby colleges and universities, has strong accessibility and provides a ripe opportunity with our current partners and future clients. This expansion continues our investment to best serve our clients in key markets at every stage of their digital transformation journey,” said Jim Bailey, CEO Americas, Capgemini.

Because of its central location, highly skilled workforce, and pro-business climate, Nashville will help to fulfill Capgemini’s mission in the future of work by recruiting and developing strong talent, state officials said.

“Over the past five years, companies have invested nearly $3 billion in Tennessee’s tech economy, and Capgemini’s investment will contribute to that growing figure. Capgemini could have chosen anywhere in the world for this project, and we are proud that another FDI company chose Tennessee. We look forward to partnering with Capgemini as the company expands its global operations in Davidson County,” TNECD Commissioner Bob Rolfe noted.
