LONDON: Kainos Group announced today further investment into Adaptive Insights’ UK and European markets through the acquisitions of Formulate (Adaptive) Limited, and the Adaptive Insights arm of Implexa GmbH.
The terms of the investments have not been disclosed. Kainos is a leading UK-based provider of digital services and platforms.
Formulate is a leading UK and European partner to Adaptive Insights: a financial and business planning software business which is part of Workday, Inc. Established in 2016 and headquartered in Worcestershire in the UK, Formulate is one of the leading European partners to Adaptive Insights. Formulate supports customers in implementing Adaptive Insight’s software; building and refining forecasting solutions.
