This will involve the gradual roll-out of artificial intelligence and agentic orchestration, with a view to enhancing service quality, strengthening client support and improving the competitiveness of the Group\u2019s offerings.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #005faa\"><strong>According to Alain de Lambilly, CEO of Tessi:<\/strong> <em>\u00ab&nbsp;<\/em><em>In our industry, value will go to those who master the most complex processes and know how to enhance them using artificial intelligence. That is our conviction, and it is precisely why we have created this role. By entrusting the technology to Yvan Saule, we are equipping ourselves to become the leading specialist BPO provider in an agentic world, particularly in sectors where trust is non-negotiable.<\/em><em>&nbsp;\u00bb<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #005faa\"><strong>According to Yvan Saule, Group CTO at Tessi:<\/strong><em> \u00ab&nbsp;Joining Tessi means being part of a group with recognised expertise and a strong, shared ambition: to make technology and AI the real drivers of growth. I was won over by the scale of the project, the diversity of roles and clients, and the energy of the teams. But it is also the magnitude of the challenge and the shared conviction that the best is yet to come.
