To get a better understanding of this situation, I can tell you more about: (how the proposal changed). Why Onepoint dropped its bid briefly in June 2024.

Onepoint specifically aimed to acquire Atos's core growth engines: Digital, Big Data, and Security businesses (later rebranded as Eviden).

The phrase "2022---ATOS--ONEPOINT-SAYS-WANT-TO-WORK--HAND-IN-HAND--WITH-ATOS" refers to a pivotal moment in the restructuring saga of the French IT giant Atos, where Onepoint, a consulting firm and eventual major stakeholder, proposed a "hand-in-hand" partnership in September 2022 to acquire Evidian (Atos's digital, big data, and security division) and prevent a destructive split of the company. Why Onepoint dropped its bid briefly in June 2024

Onepoint proposed to work with Atos rather than take it over through a competitive bid, aiming for an "alliance".

Contrary to other proposals that sought to split Atos apart (e.g., separating "Tech Foundations"), Onepoint wanted to keep the company’s core activities together to generate synergies. Onepoint confirms its intent to acquire Atos Digital

The proposal explicitly sought to avoid the value-destructive split of Atos.
