Synechron began as a spark of an idea while I was working at a Wall Street firm in the late 90s. Today, we’re a leading global Digital Transformation consultancy. 

Back then, as large technology consulting firms were emerging, many lacked a fundamental understanding of Wall Street’s complex systems and the agility needed in a dynamic market. 
Seeing the gaps in knowledge, technical skill and client engagement, I envisioned a firm that was laser-focused on the financial services sector, a firm that would not only bring cutting-edge technical capabilities but also deep business knowledge to address technology and business transformation projects. 

The goal was to embrace agile methods and build teams that combined seasoned professionals with young talent. I pitched the idea to two close friends, and fortunately, they were on board from the start. 

How has the business grown since it started and how did you ensure growth? 

From our early days, living through 9/11 and the Global Financial Crisis, we’ve grown to a team of over 14,000 across 55 offices in 20 countries, reaching nearly a billion dollars in revenue. So far, our self-sustaining growth has been driven entirely by our profits and cash flows. 

In order to remain resilient, we’ve always prioritised staying at the forefront of innovation. An example of that is our work in AI, which began almost a decade ago, and is now available for our clients and internal teams through the Synechron Nexus Suite. This forward-thinking approach has allowed us to attract top talent and continually explore new possibilities to drive technology forward.
