What Visian does

Visian is a Paris-based Data & AI consulting firm operating as a subsidiary of the Neurones Group (approximately 6,500 employees). Founded in 2016, the company employs 250 specialized data and AI consultants and reported €35M in revenue for 2025, with 120+ projects delivered since inception. It serves large French and European enterprises across banking (BNP Paribas, LCL, Société Générale, AXA), energy (TotalEnergies, EDF, Engie, Storengy), transportation (SNCF, CMA CGM, Transavia), pharma (Servier), manufacturing (Saint-Gobain), and other regulated industries, addressing needs in data platform modernization, AI industrialization, governance and compliance (RGPD, AI Act), and business value extraction from data assets.

The company operates a three-pillar service portfolio: Plateforme (data engineering, BI, cloud infrastructure, data lakehouse, MLOps), Qualité & Gouvernance (MDM, data catalog, lineage, quality, governance frameworks), and Service & Business (use case identification, business cases, MVPs, business copilots, ROI measurement). These are augmented by three productized AI sprint offerings targeting margin improvement, performance acceleration, and new growth levers, plus a Qualiopi-certified modular AI Training Program covering six business profiles. The underlying AI technical stack includes a multi-vendor LLM Gateway, enterprise RAG framework, AI observability with traces and drift detection, and pre-built Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors for major CRM, ERP, data platform, and productivity systems.

Visian generates revenue through professional consulting engagements delivered under three models: fixed-price projects (au forfait), time-and-materials (régie), and dedicated service centers, with average mission duration of 6-9 months. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting large accounts and ETIs across France and Europe, primarily delivered at client sites with hybrid working. The company markets through content (website case studies), LinkedIn, and a low-friction 30-minute initial consultation funnel. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Neurones Group, Visian operates with the stability of a larger conglomerate while maintaining its specialized data & AI brand identity.
