Accenture Gains on Partnership With Mistral AI
By Elias Schisgall
Shares of Accenture advanced after the consultancy signed a multi-year agreement with the French artificial-intelligence startup Mistral AI.
Shares were up 6% at $202.98 in midday trading Thursday. The stock has fallen 43% in the past year.
The companies said Thursday that Accenture would have access to Mistral AI's models for its consulting work. They did not disclose financial details of the partnership.
The partnership is Accenture's latest agreement with an AI company to increase its technological capabilities. Earlier this week, the company was one of four to partner with OpenAI to gain early access to its Frontier agentic AI platform.
Accenture also launched a three-year partnership with Anthropic to sell AI services to businesses in December. Anthropic said at the time that Accenture became one of its top three enterprise customers.
