The consulting major, however, did not disclose the investment details of the deal.

Zero&One supports client growth by delivering AWS services including cloud adoption, AI, machine learning, and data analytics.

PwC said the strategic investment would help enhance its technology offering and digital capabilities to support their clients’ transformation.

Bringing together PwC’s expertise in digital consulting and Zero&One’s deep competencies will empower their clients with comprehensive solutions to transform, manage and execute cloud strategies and adoption.

“With bilingual capabilities and a presence in the UAE and Lebanon, we’re confident that this investment further enables PwC to serve clients better in the region and explore new opportunities around cloud migration, modernisation and cloud native services,” he added.

Ali El Kontar of Zero&One said: “We are confident this investment will enable us to give even more to our customers, while taking this opportunity to expand in the region and scale to support digital adoption that is growing exponentially.”
