Identity

Astrakhan provides consulting services to large corporations and SMEs in Hong-Kong, France and abroad to address functional, technical and managerial issues.

History

Created in September 2012, Astrakhan was born from the desire to adapt the consulting business to the pace of innovation and change. We support the transformation of large corporations such as L’Oréal, BNP and SFR, as well as French SMEs such as MyLight, Axxes, Fives, Compagnie des Alpes and many others who have called on our expertise. We design and implement a change that creates value for these organisations.

Our commitments

Environmental Impact

We are committed to an eco-friendly approach, because we believe there is an urgent need for us as a digital player to take action to reduce the impact of digital technology on the environment. During their assignment, the consultants are therefore expected to choose the most environmentally friendly option if they have the possibility to do so.

Astrakhan’s ambition is to become a regenerative enterprise by 2030, with the following guiding principles

Functional Economy

No planned obsolescence, the proposed service is the result of a long-term vision.

Eco-design and life cycle analysis

Designing sustainable architectures and applications that run on old hardware, servers, or operating systems.

A sensible use of data

That results in the prioritization of projects that address needs, not wants.

CSR

Article 1

We encourage all employees to become a mentor to a student via dema1n.org. This platform was created by the association Article 1 and matches volunteer professionals with students who want to benefit from support in terms of organization, internship search, or languages.
