Overview
Alten is a Paris-based engineering and technology consulting group; much of its work is embedded and product software for automotive, aerospace, rail, energy and life-sciences clients, alongside mechanical and electrical engineering. Revenue for 2025 was €4,099.0 million, down 1.1% reported and 4.5% on a like-for-like basis, with France growing 4.3% and international activity falling 3.7%[15]. Headcount was 57,400 at the end of 2025, compared with 57,700 a year earlier[15]. Operating profit fell after a €67.4 million goodwill impairment and a fine from the French Competition Authority, which Alten is appealing; the results also reflect the Worldgrid acquisition[15]. Because not all of Alten’s work is software, it sits at the edge of this list’s scope.
