Accenture
Accenture is a global management consulting, technology services and outsourcing company.[1]
The firm was founded in 1989 as Andersen Consulting, by partners from a number of Arthur Andersen firms around the world. The company changed its name to Accenture on 1 January 2001, as the result of an arbitrator’s decision in August 2000 that severed the contractual ties between Accenture and Andersen Worldwide Société Coopérative (AWSC). Accenture became a public company when it listed on the New York Stock Exchange on 19 July 2001.[2]
