Accor Services buys into benefits of self-service with stake in Motivano UK

Employment benefits provider, Accor Services, has acquired a 62% stake in self-service online benefits specialist Motivano UK for an undisclosed sum.

The current management of Motivano UK, which installs and operates self-service employee benefits systems online, will retain the other 38% of shares.

Alistair Denton, managing director of Motivano UK, said the backing of a strategic partner would improve the company profile.

“Accor Services will bring significant international capability to Motivano which will enable the acceleration of its European growth,” he said.
