In the financial sector, we are booking growth with High performance teams and Business platforms. In the healthcare sector, we are very pleased with the growth in Belgium/Luxembourg and in particular in Wallonia. We saw a slight decline in revenue in the industry sector. However, we did record an increase in revenue in this sector from our propositions Intelligent data-driven organisations and Security & Privacy."
