Sopra Steria and oneclick enter strategic partnership

Sopra Steria, a European leader in digital transformation, has initiated an Accelerator Programme to give promising scale-ups the opportunity to further accelerate growth while providing customers with new products and services. The Programme is industry-led and has been specifically designed to help scale-ups get their products to market quickly, using a collaborative, supportive and professional platform. Sopra Steria has been working together with TechMarketView, a boutique analyst and advisory firm in the UK, to help shape the programme, increase the reach and organize the match making.

The cyber threat across the public and private sector has never been greater than it is in today’s markets. Organisations are continuously looking for innovative solutions to help them overcome the associated challenges. Sopra Steria is at the front line defending against this constant threat, with an end-to-end cyber security offering. In this context, Sopra Steria has been looking for a partner with a collaborative nature and a highly innovative approach in the field of cloud security, to jointly work on developing an end-to-end solution. Sopra Steria found this requirement in oneclick™, an instantly available cloud platform for the secure provisioning of infrastructure, applications and data that allows users access via highly encrypted streaming from a 100% web-based workspace in the browser.

“We are pleased to announce that oneclick has been accepted onto the Sopra Steria Accelerator Programme. During a rigorous review process, oneclick were able to demonstrate an excellent product fit with one of our key offerings and we have begun working collaboratively to bring an exciting vision a reality for our customers”, says Tanmoy Banerjee, Sopra Steria Accelerator Programme Lead. “oneclick™ solution is ideal for the Cyber-as-a-Service Platform we are developing, as a well-designed offering which provides an opportunity to integrate the various security applications we see as being critical to delivering a holistic cyber service. Implementing oneclick™ offers a clear advantage by saving time, lowering costs and providing our clients with good scalability. We see a lot of synergies with our roadmaps and potential for future business.”

“I am very delighted that our multi-stage pitch for a strategic partnership with Sopra Steria was successful and that oneclick was selected from numerous start-ups and mature applicants”, states Dominik Birgelen, CEO of oneclick AG. “To succeed we had to compile and present extensive content on our solution, the unique selling proposition, existing use cases, market dynamics and addressable market size as well as the competition. Along with a large private sector presence, Sopra Steria is a strategic partner to government and by working with them we now have the opportunity to raise our company’s profile and visibility across these sectors.”
