What Collaboration Betters The World does

Collaboration Betters The World (CBTW) is a privately held, Brussels-headquartered global technology solutions firm founded in 2013 by Jeremy Jacquet (Founder & CEO; David Dzialowski is also identified as Co-Founder, Leader Partner, and CEO). It delivers end-to-end technology services across five integrated pillars — Software Engineering, AI & Data Platforms, Cloud & Enterprise Platforms, Cybersecurity, and Strategy, Product & Transformation — targeting large enterprise clients in Banking & Finance, Telecommunications & Media, Retail & E-commerce, Luxury, Manufacturing, and Energy & Utilities. Its technology stack combines proprietary delivery methods with deep partnerships across hyperscalers and platform vendors (AWS, Microsoft, IBM, Temenos, SAS, Databricks, Snowflake, CrowdStrike, Darktrace, UiPath) and, most recently, formal membership in the Anthropic Claude Partner Network with 650+ Claude-Code-certified engineers across APAC and Europe.

The firm operates 40+ offices in 21 countries — including Belgium, France, Germany, the UK, the US, Canada, India, Singapore, Vietnam, the Philippines, Australia, Hong Kong, Colombia, Tunisia, and Bulgaria — giving it both European onshore coverage and significant nearshore/offshore delivery capacity. Revenue is generated primarily through professional services engagements (project-based, time and materials, and fixed-price contracts), with a differentiated performance-based model on mature solutions linking a portion of fees to measurable client outcomes. Notable enterprise clients include BNP Paribas, Société Générale, Crédit Agricole, Commerzbank, LBBW, Visa, Mirabaud, Publicis Media, LVMH, Clarins, Givaudan, Liebherr, Miele, Siemens Healthineers, Allianz, Baloise, TotalEnergies, Dalkia, Proximus, and Canal. CBTW holds ISO 27001 certification and claims 15+ years of AI delivery experience, with documented outcomes including a 25% infrastructure cost reduction for a bank's data lakehouse migration, 600+ engineers scaled through a BOT Innovation Hub for a global bank's digital banking program, a 185x ROAS for an e-commerce platform, and a 4x increase in phishing reporting rates for a European retirement fund. The firm has grown organically without disclosed external funding.
