The integrated capabilities allow us to provide a more comprehensive set of services and solutions to help our clients in Europe make their businesses more competitive.”

The center will seek to develop cutting edge enterprise solutions for multiple industries, in co-innovation with TCS’ customers. It will be located in the Île-de-France region and is expected to be operational later in 2014.

TCS has been operating in France since 1992 and has over 50 clients in the country, including several of the CAC 40. Over the last five years, TCS has significantly strengthened its position in the country through local hiring and investments. In recognition of these initiatives, the company had been conferred the special award for Investment and Innovation by the Greater Paris Investment Agency in 2012.
