Accenture Secures Aidemy Acquisition via Tender Offer

Accenture will acquire Aidemy Inc. via a tender offer. The integration will enhance Accenture’s LearnVantage learning and reskilling service, helping clients close skill gaps in critical areas like generative AI.

Aidemy’s expertise in developing and operating AI systems will also strengthen Accenture’s ability to support end-to-end AI adoption, from talent development to sustained enterprise implementation.

The tender offer for Aidemy, open from August 15 to September 29, 2025, successfully exceeded the minimum required shares.

Following settlement, Aidemy becomes an Accenture subsidiary. Accenture will acquire the remaining shares in the coming months, after which Aidemy will be delisted from the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

Aidemy, founded in 2014 and listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Growth Market in 2023, offers AI and digital transformation services for enterprises and reskilling programs for individuals.

Around 130 Aidemy professionals across its group companies will join Accenture to support clients in talent development, organizational transformation, and AI system implementation.

Atsushi Egawa, CEO, Accenture, Japan, and Co-CEO, Asia-Pacific, said

“There is a growing demand among companies to rapidly drive comprehensive total enterprise reinvention utilizing cutting edge technologies, including generative AI. To ensure the success of such transformations, it is essential not only to redefine ways of working and skills based on digital and AI utilization, but also to focus on talent development and redeployment. By combining the strengths of Aidemy group and Accenture, we can support enhancing competitiveness and sustainable growth by maximizing the potential of our clients’ workforces. Additionally, we aim to fundamentally transform the way learning is conducted and contribute to building a foundation that supports the growth of society as a whole.”

A World Economic Forum survey projects that 39% of workers’ skills will change or become obsolete between 2025–2030, making ongoing talent development crucial.

To address this, Accenture launched LearnVantage in March 2024 with a $1B, three-year investment to support global reskilling and upskilling, bolstered by acquisitions like Udacity, Award Solutions, TalentSprint, and Ascendient Learning.
