North Highland acquires AI and cloud firm The Bridge

Change consultancy, North Highland, has announced the acquisition of a digital transformation specialist. The deal for The Bridge adds some 160 experts to the firm.
Founded in 1992, North Highland is a transformation and change consultancy, supporting clients from its headquarters in Dallas, Texas, and an additional office in London. The transatlantic consulting firm is also a member of advisory network Cordence Worldwide, connecting it to more than 5,500 experts in over offices around the globe.
As North Highland looks to expand its own operations, it has welcomed more than 160 experts from The Bridge to its team. The acquisition of the digital transformation firm particularly enhances North Highland’s expertise in data and AI, cloud and product, and digital experience solutions.
"The Bridge is a strategic fit for North Highland, combining our proven change and transformation expertise with their cutting-edge technology, data, and AI capabilities," said Alex Bombeck, CEO of North Highland. "Together, we’ll create tailored solutions that work to turn clients’ visions into real, measurable value – ultimately creating impact that lasts."
Founded in 2014, The Bridge is also headquartered in Dallas, but also has hubs in Denver, Colorado, and Quito, Ecuador. This presents North Highland with a chance to both expand across the USA, and into South America. At the same time, the deal offers an opportunity for The Bridge to reach clients in Europe via North Highland’s London wing.
"The Bridge's mission has always been to help organisations effectively utilize technology platforms and leverage their data to attain competitive advantage," added Eric Winton, CEO at The Bridge. "We're excited to combine our technical and consulting expertise with North Highland's scale, proven methodologies, and innovative approaches to create a uniquely powerful force in helping our clients succeed in the rapidly changing digital world."
