Atos, a global digital services company, positions itself as a key player in the field of information and communications technology. Its organizational structure is based on two main branches: Tech Foundation, focused on IT outsourcing, and Eviden, which encompasses digital, cybersecurity, cloud, and big data activities. This strategic split, initiated in 2022, aims to enhance the company's flexibility and efficiency in a constantly evolving sector.
Atos stands out for its expertise in several innovative technology sectors. Notably, its subsidiary Eviden is involved in the development and integration of supercomputers, as evidenced by its participation in the JUPITER project, the first European Exascale supercomputer. This project, in partnership with ParTec, aims to provide large-scale computing power for complex applications in artificial intelligence (AI) and scientific simulation.
Another area where Atos excels is in digital twins. In collaboration with Esri, a global leader in geographic information systems, Atos is working on developing 3D modeling and AI solutions to improve the management of territories and infrastructures. This strategic partnership highlights Atos's ability to integrate advanced technologies into practical solutions for both public and private sectors.
Among Atos's recent contributions, the VulQain project stands out for its ambition to explore quantum computing to enhance the simulation of complex phenomena like combustion. In partnership with ColibrITD and ONERA, this project aims to develop a hybrid platform combining classical and quantum computing for faster and more energy-efficient calculations.
Atos is also participating in the Confiance.ai program, a collaborative effort to secure and certify artificial intelligence systems. This program, which brings together a collective of industrial and academic partners, seeks to establish trust standards for AI in response to future European regulations.
Atos is a major player in technological innovation in Europe and beyond. Its participation in consortia such as the Ultra Ethernet Consortium and involvement in large-scale projects like the LEONARDO supercomputer illustrate its leadership position in the development of high-performance computing and advanced communication solutions.
Its commitment to innovation is also reflected in its collaboration with various startups and growth-phase companies, as evidenced by its contribution to the funding of SiPearl, a French startup developing microprocessors for European supercomputers.
Atos has recently been at the center of significant strategic discussions, notably concerning the sale of its Big Data & Security (BDS) division to Airbus, a transaction potentially valued between 1.5 and 1.8 billion euros. This decision is part of a broader asset divestment strategy to strengthen its financial position and focus its efforts on high-value digital activities.
In parallel, Atos has seen a significant change in its shareholding with the entry of Onepoint, which has become the main shareholder with a 9.9% stake. This development could influence the company's future strategic direction, particularly in the context of its restructuring around the Eviden subsidiary.
In conclusion, Atos continues to assert itself as a pillar of technological innovation in Europe, with ambitious projects and strategic partnerships that enhance its ability to meet tomorrow's technological challenges. Its organizational flexibility and commitment to innovation position Atos as a central player in the global technological ecosystem.
