A fourth transaction coordinated by Carmine Capital, a trusted partner of Willing since 2019
Build a strong, committed team with deep local roots: this is Willing’s mission. By announcing the acquisition of the Altera Group, a leading player in transformation consultancy for over 20 years in the Hauts-de-France region, Willing is reaffirming its ambition: to accelerate its growth and consolidate its role as a leader in impactful digital transformation.
This transaction is fully in line with the ambitious trajectory of the One Willing 2026 strategic plan, which combines economic performance, positive impact and a strong regional presence.
A strategic and human alliance
With this acquisition, Willing is consolidating its local presence in the Hauts-de-France region, strengthening its position through the integration of an experienced and renowned team, and continuing to build its organisation on the basis of complementary skills and expertise.
A shared vision
The two firms share a common conviction: “Transformation must be meaningful, human and responsible.”
Transformation is recognised for its expertise and strong local presence. With 48 in-house consultants and a network of 250 independent consultants, it supports over 100 public and private sector clients. Its turnover stands at €12 million.
Willing: an ambitious growth strategy
Already established in Toulouse, Paris, Lille, Bordeaux, Marseille, Lyon, Nantes, Strasbourg and Geneva, Willing employs 250 people. The group generated turnover of €22 million in 2024 and is targeting 60% growth in 2025. Following the integration of SK Consulting in June 2025, this acquisition marks a further key step in its development.
Beyond the financial aspects, this transaction illustrates the importance of aligning values and vision. It also highlights a unique partnership: for the past six years, Willing has relied on Carmine Capital to support its external growth initiatives. This is a long-standing relationship built on close collaboration, a thorough understanding of Willing’s needs, and trust that has been reinforced with every transaction.
We are delighted to announce this partnership with a leading and well-established player in northern France. The Altera Group is a fantastic team that shares our vision and our commitment to making a positive impact. This integration marks a new step in Willing’s growth trajectory, with the aim of building a leading collective dedicated to driving impactful digital transformations.
