Since its creation in 2013 in Montpellier, Septeo has established itself as a major player in European tech, offering innovative digital solutions to professionals in a wide range of sectors. Today, the company has over 3,000 employees in France, Belgium, Spain, Tunisia, Canada and the United States.
At the head of this success story, Hugues Galambrun embodies a clear vision: to advance technology in the service of business, without losing the collective DNA or the culture of innovation. Thanks to this assertive trajectory, Septeo has accelerated its growth in France and abroad, with the aim of reaching sales of one billion euros by 2030. This growth is driven by massive R&D investments - up to 60 million euros each year - notably to develop the Septeo Brain platform, which, rather than replacing professionals, helps them to move faster, gain in precision and automate repetitive tasks.
At the same time, a strategy of targeted acquisitions and partnerships (Campus Skills, UpSignOn, Misterbooking) has enabled the consolidation of complementary areas of expertise and the Group's expansion into Southern Europe and Belgium. This "CEO of the Year 2025" trophy rewards an ambitious and responsible vision, that of a leader who has managed to grow his company without abandoning his values, by placing people and innovation at the heart of his development strategy.
