Magellan

What Magellan does

Magellan Partners is a Paris-headquartered European consulting and technology group founded in 2008 that operates as a hybrid advisory and implementation firm serving large enterprises, mid-sized companies, and public sector organizations across eight vertical markets: banking and insurance, transport and mobility, energy and utilities, industry and services, healthcare and public sector, defense and aerospace, luxury and retail, and telecom and media. The company sells through direct enterprise field sales with strategic account management and C-level engagement, and is positioned as a preferred partner of nine major enterprise technology platforms including Microsoft, Salesforce, AWS, SAP, ServiceNow, Google Cloud, and Pega.

The firm's offering spans management consulting (digital transformation, data & AI including generative and agentic AI, cyber & compliance, IT strategy, sustainability, customer experience, product management) alongside hands-on technology implementation: intelligent platforms, cloud infrastructure, modernization, and custom solutions. It also develops and licenses proprietary product suites — CX Suite for omnichannel customer engagement, Trusted Services for cybersecurity and trust, Transport & Mobility Solutions, and the VESTA property management platform — generating a modest recurring subscription revenue stream alongside professional services.

Revenue mechanics are anchored in professional services engagements (consulting and technology implementation) supplemented by proprietary software licensing, with pricing conducted on a quote-based model tied to project scope and client size. Since Capza's 2021 investment, Magellan has executed at least seven acquisitions (including axYus, MBV SI, Adone Conseil, KMSI, VP and White, and Yunit), culminating in the 2026 acquisition of Worldline's Mobility & e-Transactional Services (MeTS) and Digital Banking activities for €410 million. Post-MeTS, the company targets approximately €900 million in 2026 turnover across 13 countries with over 6,700 employees, under new financial sponsorship from ICG, which replaced Capza in late 2025.
