The consulting firm has provided capital for two early-stage funds managed by France-based venture firm Partech Ventures.

US-listed consulting firm Accenture has committed to two funds managed by Partech Ventures, a venture capital firm headquartered in France.

The firm will acquire a minority equity investment in Partech Entrepreneur II Fund, which specialises in seed funding, and in Partech International Ventures VII, which invests in early-stage startups.

Accenture will join Partech’s advisory committee, gaining early access to relevant startups and the opportunity to co-invest in early-stage companies, such as its investment in Drover, a UK-based car-sharing facilitation service.
