OUR ORIGINS
125 years of expertise in enterprise data
As a French precursor of business information, Ellisphere has a hundred years of expertise in the collection and management of BtoB data in France and abroad. It supports the evolution of the BtoB information business with both companies and public authorities.
The history of Ellisphere was marked in 2006 by the creation of Coface Services, a merger of the two main French players in the business information and receivables management market (ORT and SCRL).
In 2011, Coface Services becomes a direct subsidiary of Natixis. In 2014, it took the name of Ellisphere, the final stage of a new autonomy and a new dynamic focused on BtoB information, driven by a constantly changing economic and regulatory context. Since 2019, Ellisphere's shareholders are its management, as well as Bpifrance, Tikehau Capital and Andera Partners.
In 2021, Ellisphere, via its holding company Arthemis, has carried out an external growth operation by acquiring the company Infotrade, which publishes Sparklane solutions. With this acquisition, Ellisphere consolidates its position in the marketing solutions market, one of its three strategic businesses.

OUR EXPERTS
6 areas of excellence to support you
Data Division
Ellisphere's data center is in charge of collecting, analyzing and enriching the information in the data repository on a permanent basis.
It is fed by public and private sources (surveys, media, partnerships, remitters' communities). Specialized teams collect and qualify information such as annual accounts, financial links, judgments and payment experiences.
These data are rigorously cross-checked to be rectified and valued in an editorial coherence allowing to have a multi-sourced, rich and reliable documentary fund, intended for the creation of customer solutions.
Data Science Division
Ellisphere's data science team is responsible for transforming and analyzing data, via machine learning algorithms for example, to then help and accelerate decision making.
Due to the increase in the amount of data available within companies, the role of data science is becoming more and more essential. Indeed, raw data remains unstructured and therefore difficult to use without human intervention.
The role of the data science division is therefore to transform this data using artificial intelligence to implement decision-making solutions that meet our clients' needs.
