abaQon

abaQon is a management consulting company specializing in the financial services industry, with a legal headquarters in Zug, Switzerland. The firm was founded in 2015 by Stefan Jansen and his partners. Jansen, who has over two decades of experience in the financial sector, focusing on technical architecture and M&A management, stepped down from operational management in 2021 but remains Chairman of the Board.

The company operates as a consulting boutique, supporting financial institutions with business and platform transformations. Its services cover the entire value chain, from strategic planning to on-the-ground implementation. Key areas of expertise include front-to-back banking topics, client lifecycle management, turn-around management for troubled projects, data analytics, and implementing agile methodologies. abaQon serves a clientele that ranges from local Swiss banks to large global corporations, primarily in Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein. As a certified Atlassian Solution Partner, the company also assists clients in tailoring and implementing Atlassian products to support agile organizational structures.

abaQon has shown consistent growth, expanding its team to over 10 employees by 2017 and over 20 by 2020. In August 2025, the international consulting firm Eraneos Group acquired abaQon. This acquisition, which included abaQon's team of approximately 30 professionals, was aimed at strengthening Eraneos's service offerings for the banking sector, particularly in hybrid consulting architectures, data analytics, and generative AI platforms. Philippe Vanin, a Managing Partner and co-founder of abaQon, noted that the partnership with Eraneos allows abaQon to maintain its core identity while contributing to a larger growth platform.
