Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Eurazeo backed OMMAX in 2025 and signed Singulier in May 2026.
  • The combined group targets €80-100 million revenue and broader European coverage.
  • July 2026 hired Lutz Finger as CAIO, strengthening AI strategy credibility.

What critics are saying

  • Eurazeo's 2025 buy-and-build puts Singulier inside a shared P&L integration race.
  • A 400-person cross-border platform risks delivery friction across Paris, Munich, London, and Milan.
  • AI consulting commoditizes quickly; Accenture, McKinsey, and OMMAX can squeeze pricing by 2027.

What makes Singulier unique

  • Singulier built a PE-focused diligence franchise before OMMAX's 2026 merger.
  • Rémi Pesseguier's Bain and Oliver Wyman background anchors rigorous transaction work.
  • Sam Lin and Yves Bonnefont deepen AI and transformation credibility with operators.
