Nexia S&A conducted the financial due diligence on behalf of Apave as part of the acquisition of Apave Climate School, AXA Climate's training business, in a build-up transaction.
With a turnover of €10 million and 55 employees, Apave Climate School specializes in training companies on sustainable transition challenges and climate change adaptation.
Established in 2021 and based in Île-de-France, Apave Climate School develops a training catalog for employees of major French and international groups. Its content, offered in digital and hybrid formats and available in nine languages, covers ESG, climate, and sustainable transition issues. The company supports businesses in developing their teams' skills to meet new regulatory and environmental requirements.
This acquisition allows Apave to strengthen its new Apave Impact division, dedicated to ESG, carbon, and climate issues, while accelerating the development of its training offerings in France and internationally. The transaction is part of the group's diversification strategy and aims to strengthen synergies between its historical activities and its new expertise in sustainable transition.
