Klaus Koefoed appointed as Nordic Head of Cloud Strategy & Transformation Advisory Business at Capgemini

Capgemini’s Nordic Cloud Strategy & Transformation Advisory (CSTA) department offers strategic business consultancy and technical advisory, assisting leading companies across Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and Finland, in all aspects of their cloud transformation – from strategy to execution.

“Considering the momentum our business is experiencing in general, especially in enabling the cloud transformation agenda of major clients, we are delighted that Klaus Koefoed is leading our Nordic cloud unit,” says Anil Agarwal, President of Capgemini in the Nordic region. “Today, the cloud agenda is considered business-critical and the strategic opportunities it opens up are being discussed in many boardrooms. Therefore, an obvious responsibility of Klaus will be to reinforce the Capgemini’s capacity to talk cloud at the highest level – from a business, technology, security and compliance perspective.,”

Commenting on his new role, Klaus Koefoed said, “Capgemini is on an exciting journey in both Denmark and the rest of the Nordic countries where the cloud agenda is changing the perception of an organization’s digital journey. We are starting to see the next wave of cloud 2.0. The previous focus on technology and solutions has shifted to a more fundamental transformational view of developing the business and implementing cloud-based core systems. Across industries, the focus is on time-to-market in relation to new customer-facing services. Our objective at the Nordic Cloud unit will be to highlight how cloud transformation can ensure business development and drive growth in even the largest of organizations”.
