• The digital transformation company announced investments at London Tech Week
• A long-standing player in the digital and cognitive field, Globant has its eyes on the UK as an integral part of its global expansion plan

September 20, 2021 - Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company that offers innovative technology solutions, announced a new £65m investment plan over the next three years to quadruple its teams in the UK; create a Sustainability Hub; and expand its London headquarters. 

Martin Umaran, Co-Founder and President of Globant in EMEA shared these plans with Lord Gerry Grimstone of Boscobel Kt, Minister for Investment, at the Global Innovators Summit organized by London Tech Week earlier today.

Globant will hire an additional 600 jobs on top of the 200 actual Globers, as Globant’s people are known, that work across multiple UK locations to support its growth in the region. Also, given the context of current world events, and COP26 and the UK being a focal point for sustainability innovation, the Company has decided to establish the base for its Sustainable Business Studio Knowledge Hub in the UK. The Studio, led by Dr. Elena Morettini -seasoned professional expert in the energy field-, was launched last November and operates at the intersection of digital technology and sustainability, bringing together new know-how, expertise and roles - twinning digitalisation and sustainability in order to shape zero-carbon mindsets and practices. Recently, Globant joined the Green Software Foundation (GSF) as one of five Steering Members while working together with other several organisations to make the world a better place, one step at a time.

UK: a key operation for Globant in Europe

Globant is currently investing in a new and much larger London HQ. This 22,000 sq.ft space in the ZigZag Building in Victoria is a state of the art business and collaboration centre designed to accommodate new ways of working between Globers and clients with all new standards of wellbeing and biophilia.
 

“UK-based clients have found Globant to be a key partner in several digital transformation projects in recent years surpassing our expectations. We have already worked for major global blue chip clients and for important public sector clients such as the Metropolitan Police, as well as new start-ups and scale-ups across a range of industry sectors. There is a huge opportunity for companies seeking to reinvent themselves and we will continue working to help them succeed in the future”, said Stuart Deignan, who was appointed in April as UK Managing Director to spearhead its nationwide expansion strategy.

In March, Globant acquired CloudShift in the UK, expanding the company’s multi-cloud digital transformation capabilities. Globant’s fast growth rate globally has also included the European acquisitions of financial services management consultancy Bluecap; digital marketing consultancy Habitant; and Walmeric, a firm specialized in developing marketing automation technology with cloud-based platforms that combine lead management, online marketing and sales enablement. 

“The UK is extremely strategic for us and was really fundamental for our growth when we were born. One of Globant’s first clients was in the UK, where many exciting developments in technologies are pushing the frontiers of what can be achieved through digital transformation. We will continue to expand our presence, focusing at the same time on delivering transformation with a strong focus on sustainability”, said Martin Umaran, Co-Founder and President of Globant in EMEA.

Minister for Investment, Lord Gerry Grimstone of Boscobel Kt said: "The UK is a global leader in tech with the state-of-the-art capability and resources to keep ahead of the curve. Globant’s significant investment in the UK will create 600 jobs, boost the economy and support levelling up across the country - great news as we look ahead to hosting the Global Investment Summit next month. I wish Globant every success as they scale up and grow here.”

• Globant’s Digital Sales Studio responds to the urgency of reinventing organizations' approach to sales and marketing, putting AI- and data-powered technology at the center of business transformation. 

Madrid, June 22, 2021 - Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company that offers innovative technology solutions, launched its Digital Sales Studio to disrupt traditional sales channels. The Studio aims to challenge e-commerce by placing the consumer at the center of strategy and applying technology at the service of the business to drive results.

"The pandemic has had a drastic impact on consumer experiences, and companies are facing the urgent need to reinvent their business models through extended technology capabilities to improve performance, staying at the forefront of digital consumption trends," said Diego Tártara, Chief Technology Officer, Globant. “The Digital Sales Studio is the answer to this challenge. It was born from Globant's experience in digital transformation and has the mission of bringing together business, marketing and technology, guided by a holistic vision of the consumer”.

With this Studio, Globant seeks to eradicate the business paradigm based on traditional marketing, in which sales revolve around the features of a product. Instead, today's strategy is focused on the consumer and requires a digital and cognitive transformation, forcing marketing and sales leaders to approach their business from a new perspective.

The Digital Sales Studio can collaborate mainly in two ways. First, by empowering companies that still retain their traditional sales channels to move towards online transactions. Second, by allowing companies that already work under e-commerce schemes to know their consumers better and make their marketing decisions based on data, unlocking new AI capabilities.

"A recent Globant survey showed that 90% of marketers claim that understanding consumer profiles is imperative to their organization, but only about half of them are prepared to use technology and data models to create more personalized experiences," noted Pablo Monge, Global Head of Digital Sales Studio, Globant. "If we zoom in on digital investment, there is an incredible increase in marketing and advertising technology, but the challenge goes further; it means reacting in real-time to consumer demands, and this correspondence can only be carried out through quick access to the data and the capabilities to interpret and apply it."

To guide companies in achieving the ultimate goal of business transformation, Globant will hold a new edition of Converge Europe on June 23, and will present in depth the capabilities of the New Digital Sales Studio. Register and join here.

• CO2 is the new commodity: companies will need to update corporate financial strategies to cover an assessment of risks, opportunities and go to market for Carbon. The latest Sentinel Report addresses the steps companies must take in their sustainability transition through the vector of technology.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 17, 2021 - Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company, published its new Sentinel Report, which aims to guide organizations in their strategies and planning to be ready for the business of the future. In “Navigating the Sustainable Business Era”, Globant outlines how organizations should integrate sustainability into the core of their business and transition from awareness to consciousness, for their own success and for the future of climate change. 

“The climate crisis will touch every part of business and society. To address it, we will need to find new ways to tap into our collective creativity, passion and ingenuity,” said Elena Morettini, Sustainable Business Studio Partner at Globant. "Anticipating and adapting to change sets apart future-ready organizations, with climate change and carbon-thinking being the biggest shifts in our lifetime. We hope this report will open new conversations and highlight the importance of sustainability in the future of business, as we enter the decade of action."

The new Sentinel Report outlines four lenses for how successful businesses can weave in sustainability throughout their organizations’ processes, from diversity & inclusion to carbon budgets. 

• Increased Awareness. In this make-or-break decade, we will win the climate race because of the awareness, readiness and cooperation of all of our colleagues, clients and partners.
• Conscious Leadership. C-suite level consciousness and a strong commitment is key to enabling long-term change.
• Technology for Green Business. Digitalization and sustainability must be understood as occurring hand-in-hand – from augmenting meteorological forecasting, or “weatherizing” to optimize real-time decision making, to carbon “digital twinning” to optimize emissions’ calculations; digital transformation and a green future can be  two variables of the same equation.
• Digital Sobriety. Businesses must understand and account for the carbon footprint of technological progress. Sustainable business approaches can create a more energy efficient digital ecosystem, further reducing organizations’ carbon and financial costs by optimizing software design, inventing energy-efficiency standards and practices for  software and empowering other IT organizations.

The report emphasizes that a sustainability mindset and approach must be embedded in all aspects of operations and decision-making processes. 

“Today, when defining projects, plans and strategies, companies should not only budget from a financial perspective, but also from the CO2 emission point of view”, said Diego Tártara, Global Chief Technology Officer at Globant. “But the carbon budget is fixed, there is only a certain amount we can emit to maintain Earth’s temperature through 2030.”

Carbon and financial budgets and costs must both be accounted for in any business decision, so as to manage the five key sustainability risks that threaten business resiliency: 

1. Climate-related risks that threaten the physical operating environment for businesses and value chains,
2. Transitional risks associated with the shift towards new low-carbon economy, 
3. Reputational risks based upon both internal and public company commitments to achieve sustainability metrics, standards and objectives,
4. Legal risks faced by GHG emitters and those that don’t achieve lasting change, and
5. Financial risks, including lower accessibility to capital for those that don’t boost their climate-finance transparency and sustainability efforts and disclosure. 

 
Globant’s Sustainable Business Studio works to solve these issues for organizations as it operates at the intersection of digital technology and sustainability - bringing them together to create solutions for organizations working towards the acceleration of a common carbon-neutral future.

San Francisco, June 10, 2021 - Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company, today announced BeHealthy, a new program that launches the Earn Your Apple Watch app --a solution that offers companies the opportunity to help customers, members, or employees improve their health and wellness. 

The app is a highly configurable, white label recognition and reward program, developed in conjunction with Apple, to help clients improve the wellness and the quality of engagement with their customers, members, or employees by leveraging and integrating the unique built-in features of Apple Watch including the activity rings.

“The Earn Your Apple Watch program is a powerful tool for personal insights in one of the most important areas of our lives – health and wellness. With this platform, our clients can go further in supporting their employees’ and customers’ wellness by offering a personalized, engaging tool,” said Fernando Matzkin, Chief Business Officer of Globant North America. “Employees and consumers receive added motivation and incentive to improve their well-being while driving down healthcare costs and increasing positive engagement.”

The Earn Your Apple Watch program can be implemented by any company that wants to contribute to the wellness of their employees and customers by encouraging physical activity. The app can help users make better choices, adopt healthy habits, and achieve exercise goals. New features are already planned to support preventative care and health management for conditions such as pre-diabetes and hypertension.

The program is available in two modes:

• Earn Your Apple Watch – participants can earn refunds toward the cost of a new Apple Watch by being active and meeting monthly exercise goals.
• Earn With Apple Watch – participants can earn rewards or unlock discounts by being active and meeting monthly exercise goals. Rewards can be vouchers for goods or services, or credits toward larger purchases or discounts offered by the sponsoring organization. This mode can also be integrated with companies’ existing rewards platforms.

“Technology can empower consumers to have greater awareness of their health and well-being choices so they can make better decisions. By using Apple Watch, these tools can be used to incentivize better health decisions and outcomes, saving companies money while improving the livelihoods of consumers and employees,” said Nicolás Avila, Chief Technology Officer of Globant.

A pilot of the program was launched in April by Canada-based retailer London Drugs, as LDExtras Achieve, an extension of their loyalty reward program. This first-of-a-kind initiative provides customers cash back in the form of LDExtra vouchers that users are able to use toward purchases in-store or online by completing monthly activity goals within the LDExtras Achieve app.

The BeHealthy rewards program has been built with software that protects the privacy of all users and has secure data protections at its core.

• The 2016 Davis Cup winner and 2009 US Open Champion started to train again yesterday in Buenos Aires
   

SAN FRANCISCO, June 8, 2021 - Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company that offers innovative technology solutions, announced today that it has entered into an agreement with the tennis player Juan Martin Del Potro, to accompany his return to the courts as a symbol of its Seek Reinvention culture. 

Yesterday, Juan Martin Del Potro started training on a tennis court in Buenos Aires (Argentina) on his comeback trail after suffering a right-knee injury that required four surgeries. Using a protection on his right leg, he practiced his forehand and serve strokes.

A video of Juan Martin Del Potro training can be found in Globant’s social media profiles on LinkedIn and Twitter. More exclusive content will appear as he continues his training regimen. The can-do spirit, grit, and perseverance are hallmarks of Juan Martin’s persona. These same qualities are also shared by Globant, as it focuses on helping its customers reinvent business strategies, products, offerings, or cultures to succeed in today’s competitive business environment.

What better way to bring to life the challenges and opportunities of reinvention than through the comeback journey of an exceptional athlete like Juan Martin del Potro”, says Martin Migoya, CEO and co-founder at Globant. “His vision, determination, incredible athleticism, and a can-do attitude that produces results is exactly the formula that leaders of all companies need to succeed in today’s world. We are delighted to be close to Juan Martín in this special moment and support his journey of reinvention on the ATP tour.” 

“When I first met the Globant team, I realized that we share a common vision: to always explore a way forward and overcome any setbacks along the way.” said Juan Martín del Potro. “I’m stepping on the same court being a different athlete and I'm truly grateful to Globant for being part of this new journey.” 

#SeekReinvention is Globant’s way of guiding our customers to a sustainable future. Every person, business, and even nature itself, faces a need to reinvent themselves to evolve, to become a better version of who they are and to navigate through constant challenges. Those who seek this reinvention are the ones who win in the end.
