Accenture has acquired cloud and digital transformation consultancy Infinity Works.  

The professional services giant, based in the US and Ireland, said the acquisition strengthens its cloud delivery and engineering capabilities in the UK. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. 

With experience across multiple sectors from retail to financial services and some of the largest digital-led projects in national government, Infinity Works helps some of the country’s most recognised brands digitally transform.  

It provides a range of services including cloud, data, design and research, cloud and engineering specialisation. 

Paul Henshaw, co-founder at Infinity Works, said: “Ever since Infinity Works was founded, we have used cloud-first approaches to help our customers migrate to the cloud and enable them to digitally transform at scale and speed.  

We are proud of our proven experience of delivering across multiple sectors using a combination mobile and full-stack engineering.
