Goal: to create a global pole of excellence in the realm of human resources management solutions
The new year has begun with an important move by the Zucchetti group, which entered into a partnership with Talentia Software [1], alongside with the Argos Soditic [2] fund and the Talentia company management. In particular, the aim is to deploy a combined offer in Italy as a first step, and in other European countries as a second step.
The international growth of Zucchetti (the leading Italian software company with over 386 million Euro turnover in 2015, and more than 105,000 active clients) will be fostered by this move, especially in the area of human resource management solutions.
In the scenario of world economics, human resources are increasingly a strategic asset, as the correct management of talents is paramount to the success of every organization.
The corporate operation between Zucchetti, Argos Soditic and Talentia Software is a part of this context. Thanks mainly to the Cezanne Software Holdings Limited, the latter company has become successful internationally with important figures, in particular in the medium-large company sector: 54.4 million Euro turnover in 2015, 25% of which overseas, with a growth of 30 over the last 5 years%.
“Talentia Software distinguishes itself on the market by the quality of its solutions and its high level of customer satisfaction - declared Louis Godron, Chairman of Argos Soditic – and this is the basis of why we have decided to invest to further increase the element of research and development and increase the sales force in order to expand penetration of the company offer in European markets”.
“We have drawn up an aggressive growth plan with Argos Soditic and Zucchetti that will allow us to offer an increasingly performing, international range of solutions to clients.” – Viviane Chaine-Ribeiro, President of Talentia Software and President of Fédération Syntec commented – With Zucchetti, we can implement some important synergies in order to satisfy the administrative, organizational and management needs of companies in the realm of human resources”.
“Our goal is to strengthen our international presence, also with Talentia Software’s expertise and to continue to bring the excellence of Zucchetti products in the world. – Alessandro Zucchetti, President of Zucchetti, states – We decided on this investment as we share the main values of proposal on the market, i.e. Continuous technological innovation and attention to clients”.
Antonio Grioli, President of the Zucchetti Board of Directors added: “Talentia Software and Zucchetti are two companies that are already leaders in the human resources sector.
