Accenture has acquired the Hyderabad-headquartered TalentSprint, a deep tech education player, from NSE Academy, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE). TalentSprint’s team of approximately 210 professionals will join Accenture LearnVantage.
Accenture stated that its acquisition of TalentSprint complements its recent investments in Udacity and Award Solutions, and aligns with its $1 billion investment in LearnVantage over three years, announced in early 2024.
The acquisition is said to bolster Accenture LearnVantage’s ability to drive growth through key university certifications and boot camps, creating trained talent pools for enterprises and governments.
Founded in 2009, TalentSprint offers learning programs to emerging and experienced professionals in partnership with top academic institutions and leading enterprise technology providers. The company has also collaborated with academic institutions, including the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs), Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), International Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs), and global research institutions.
“TalentSprint’s end-to-end delivery capabilities of focused learning programs provide a competitive value proposition for learners and enterprises alike, making it a great fit for our expanding LearnVantage business,” said Kishore Durg, global lead of Accenture LearnVantage.
“The addition of TalentSprint further boosts our ability to meet our clients’ demand for training, helping their people gain the essential technology skills in emerging areas needed to reinvent their organizations and achieve greater business value.”
TalentSprint also has offices in Sunnyvale, California. Its programs span AI, data science, cybersecurity, chip design, semiconductor technologies, digital transformation, sustainability, leadership, and other areas of management.
“Since inception, our mission has been to equip learners with deep expertise for a disrupted world,” said Anurag Bansal, Managing Director and CEO of TalentSprint. “Joining forces with Accenture LearnVantage allows us to scale our impact, delivering cutting-edge technology and next-gen management programs that are valued and trusted by students, professionals, organizations, and governments alike.”
