Astrakhan Becomes Gabriel Greenfield — The Transformation Powerhouse

We've changed our name. But more importantly, we've taken things to a whole new level.
Why the change? Because a name should reflect who you really are.
Astrakhan reflected our roots: a demanding consulting firm operating between Paris and Hong Kong, built on the conviction that technological transformation has value only if it is deeply human. But over the course of our engagements over the past two years - in the financial sector, in energy, and in luxury - something became clear. We weren’t just advising. We were driving structural, sustainable, large-scale transformations.
Gabriel Greenfield embodies this dual nature that we have always possessed:
→ Gabriel: the guide, the messenger, the human at the heart of every project
→ Greenfield: open fields, growth, renewal, but also a focus on sustainability and responsibility.
A world of possibilities that makes transformation a mission we must succeed in to create value responsibly.
And what about “The Transformation Powerhouse”? It represents the promise of an organization that is well-thought-out, carefully planned, and structured for the long term. Transformation doesn't have to be drastic to be powerful.

🧭 We didn’t just go along with this name change. We drove it, just as we drive our clients’ transformations.
We apply our own methodology, Meridian, to ourselves.
Meridian is the backbone of our approach:
• A transformation architecture grounded in the reality of systems and data
• Rigorous financial modeling to prioritize high-impact initiatives
• Portfolio management to drive innovation without compromising operations
• An operational model aligned with growth ambitions
• And Lean Change Management as the driver of employee buy-in
We ourselves are going through a phase that we are familiar with from our clients: the “structuring” phase. After a year of reset (repositioning, key hiring, and clarifying our offerings), we are entering 2026 on a path of controlled acceleration.

📊 What this means in practical terms:
By 2025: €1.6 million in consolidated revenue, €265,000 in profit. A solid foundation.
In 2026: targeting €2.6 million, with an expanded team, driven by four complementary service lines:
— Intelligent Transformation (our strategic core structured by Meridian)
— Certified Responsible Agentic: process automation and governance organized around ISO 42001
— Data Science & Predictive AI,
— Architecture & Enterprise Integration Platforms: our expertise in designing integrated systems, aimed at embedding AI at the heart of the information system
This structured transformation trajectory is further driven by the deployment of a new regional office in Normandy, the arrival of a Data & AI Associate Director, and a Sales Director.

🔬 Our prediction for the next three years?
AI won’t make large firms stronger - it will empower specialized firms to make a significant impact with a minimal footprint.
Companies that have endured a decade of “transformation” with disappointing results now want guidance grounded in their reality.
Gabriel Greenfield is exactly that. A powerhouse dedicated to your transformation - human in approach, structured in results.
We’ve only just begun. 🧭
