Our take
Previously working as the tech consultancy wing of Arthur Andersen accounting firm, Accenture, now a professional services company, was part of the 1950s team responsible for the first-ever computer installation in Louisville Kentucky. After its split from Andersen in 2001, Accenture took its new moniker, blending the phrase “accent of the future” as a statement of intent.
Accenture has certainly lived up to its name in the last 20+ years, acquiring and developing a large portfolio of cybersecurity, cloud platforms, and technology companies, leading to its value of $177 billion and placement on the Fortune Global 500 company list. In late 2022, Accenture further invested in the frontiers of digital by acquiring BehaVR, a mental health treatment system that utilises virtual reality. It also has an eye on the climate crisis, investing in KETOS, a data intelligence company that helps monitor and address water efficiency and quality.
Through its investments, Accenture has retained a relevance and an importance as a major global player. In January 2023, Accenture partnered with Microsoft and the World Economic Forum to deliver a presentation about investments in the metaverse and its growing importance in business and culture. Accenture’s new metaverse platform, CEO Julie Sweet claims, will help social workers, case workers, firefighters, and the general public train for challenging situations.
