Assessio completes strategic acquisition of Elevo

Assessio and Elevo unite to transform HR Tech in Europe, a game-changing move for customers across Europe. The acquisition creates an end-to-end HR solution for Assessio customers combining predictive assessments with continuous performance and development – all powered by AI and grounded in science.

Assessio announces the acquisition of Elevo, a leading French HR Tech scale-up of performance and talent management solutions.

The acquisition marks a significant step in Assessio’s ambition to offer an integrated and science-based HR platform – one that supports the full employee lifecycle, from hiring the right people to driving their growth and performance.

By combining Elevo’s intuitive performance platform with Assessio’s predictive assessments, customers can now strengthen the entire talent journey: from smarter hiring decisions to continuous development and engagement, all powered by AI and grounded in psychological science.

“We’re not just improving HR tech, we’re reshaping what’s possible,” says Mikkel Lundø, CEO at Assessio.

“This acquisition is a key step in building a smarter, more unified platform that gives HR leaders the insights they need to act with speed and confidence. Grounded in science and powered by AI, we’re setting the stage for something bigger – a new way of thinking about talent that delivers real value, not just promises.”

This unified platform is already taking shape behind the scenes, where product teams are working to ensure a seamless user experience and intelligent data flow across tools. 

“This partnership is a foundation for what’s coming next. By connecting psychometric assessments with performance tools in one intelligent flow, we’re simplifying complexity for HR and unlocking new possibilities for data-driven talent decisions. The real transformation is only beginning, and we’re excited to build what comes next — together with our customers,” says Johan Masironi, CPO at Assessio.

Our customers can expect richer, more actionable insights, grounded in science and powered by AI-technology. This acquisition is really a step change to enable our customers to use Assessio for the full employee life-cycle and apply AI to boost efficiency.

– Mikkel Lundø, CEO at Assessio

Together, Assessio and Elevo share a deep commitment to transforming talent management with psychological science, design and AI.

Where Assessio historically helps organisations identify potential and cultural fit before hiring, Elevo enables continuous development of employees through performance reviews, 360° feedback, goal setting, skill gaps, and people analytics.

The combination offers unprecedented value for HR teams who want to move from fragmented tools to one coherent, insight-rich solution.

“Joining forces with Assessio allows us to expand our reach and enhance our offering beyond France,” says Thibault Vilon, CEO and Founder of Elevo.

“Together, we aim to provide organisations with tools that not only assess talent effectively but also foster continuous growth and engagement throughout the employee lifecycle.”

Backed by Pollen Street Capital, Assessio’s acquisition of Elevo is part of a wider strategy to reshape the European HR tech landscape. But most importantly, it’s a promise to customers: to deliver intelligent, future-ready solutions that maximise both human and business potential.
