“The offering proposed by Rimini Street meets these expectations. Thanks to this pre-qualified solution available through CANUT, public and private non-profit organizations now have a concrete alternative to traditional support models, which are often characterized by dependence on a single vendor and a lack of flexibility. The potential savings can be immediately reinvested in high-value modernization and innovation projects.”

Present in France since 2017 with a local entity, an office in Paris and dedicated teams, Rimini Street is committed to a long-term approach serving French public-sector organizations.”
