In 1996, the company completed its initial public offering, listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange, and later expanded its international footprint with the acquisition of UK-based Logica in 2012. Additional strategic acquisitions have bolstered CGI’s capabilities in Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific, positioning it as a full-service partner to government agencies, financial institutions, telecommunications providers, and other key sectors.
Today, CGI operates in more than 40 countries and employs tens of thousands of professionals worldwide. Under the leadership of President and Chief Executive Officer George D. Schindler, the company remains committed to client proximity and collaborative engagement, aiming to deliver high-quality, outcome-oriented services. With headquarters in Montreal and major regional centers across North America, Europe, and beyond, CGI continues to invest in innovation, talent development, and sustainable growth to support a diverse global client base.
