Problem: Alias was an SAP implementation partner based in Paris that wanted a strategic buyer for the company to help it accelerate its growth.

Solution: The Catalyst Group identified CMG plc, a leading European IT services company, as an attractive candidate as an acquirer.

Result: CMG acquired Alias to broaden its business in France, then retained The Catalyst Group to seek additional, complementary acquisitions to continue its growth. This resulted in CMG's acquisition of Techside Consultants SA, an advanced technology consultancy based in Paris.
