Since inception it has been a member of the Process Solutions European network of professional service firms, giving it cross-border reach, and it currently operates as part of the Afianza group, a diversified Spanish business-services platform with more than 1,200 professionals serving approximately 10,000 clients. Epimetheus runs a sales-led GTM built on direct engagement with business clients and a bilingual Spanish/English web presence; no pricing is publicly disclosed and contracts are tailored per engagement.
