About the Company

Babel

IT and digital transformation services provider

Babel is an IT and digital transformation services provider focused on large organizations and public bodies. It helps clients modernize systems, implement digital solutions, and navigate technology change through a services-led approach delivered by its consulting and delivery teams. The company grows by acquiring other firms to expand geographic reach and capabilities, a strategy that accelerated after Mubadala Capital became the majority shareholder in 2024. Babel’s “Hyperspace 2029” plan aims to reach 1 billion euros in turnover by 2029 through a combination of organic growth and further acquisitions, supported by a stronger balance sheet. Unlike some peers, Babel emphasizes employee well-being as a core part of its mission while rapidly expanding its footprint across Spain, Germany, Mexico, and Portugal via acquisitions and strategic integration.
