Expansions will strengthen Capgemini’s ability
to serve current and prospective clients and meet strong demand for
digital transformation services across the U.S.
Capgemini today announced plans to launch a new delivery center
in Nashville, TN in 2022. The Nashville center will complement the
recent expansion of Capgemini sites in Columbia, SC (2020), and
Houston, TX (2021) to better serve clients, improve solution
delivery and develop talent. Capgemini’s investment in business
growth is projected to deliver more than 1,500 new jobs in
high-value and fast-growing technology areas, including cloud,
artificial intelligence, custom software development, digital
customer experience and data.
“The establishment of Capgemini’s new delivery center is a major
milestone that will support the continued acceleration of our
business in the U.S.,” said Jim Bailey, CEO Americas at Capgemini
and Group Executive Board Member. “The Nashville area is rich with
diverse talent, an excellent network of local colleges and
universities, and strong accessibility. It will provide
opportunities for us to further support our current partners and
future clients. This investment signals our ongoing commitment to
better serving our clients in key markets at every stage of their
digital transformation journey.”
“In recent years, Middle Tennessee has far outpaced national
technology job growth rates and is expected to continue on this
trajectory for years to come,” said Tennessee Governor, Bill Lee.
“This region is attracting technology workers from around the
country and training a skilled workforce right here in Tennessee. I
welcome Capgemini to Tennessee as they create hundreds of new jobs
in Nashville.”
This launch builds upon Capgemini’s existing delivery center
locations in the U.S., including the Advanced Technology
Development Center in Columbia, SC, which opened in 2018 and
brought hundreds of jobs to the region, as well as the Software
Development Center in Houston, TX, which has also grown in size.
U.S. delivery center expansion continues Capgemini’s focus on
integrating its global network of development centers to support
the increasing need for regional scalability for clients around the
world. It’s through these centers that diverse teams of
industry-leading innovators develop and implement new technology
and digital experiences across the client portfolio. The Nashville
delivery center will focus specifically on Capgemini’s capabilities
in enterprise application modernization, artificial intelligence,
machine learning, and IoT solutions.
This move into the region also aligns with Capgemini's
investments in the future of work by recruiting and developing top
talent able to collaborate in a highly connected network.
Nashville’s central location, strong technology talent pipeline and
high-growth business climate make it immensely attractive for
employees and clients.
