    “Having a concise and comprehensive sustainability story was critical to the IPO readiness process for GlobalLogic. It was a topic of conversation in the TTW (testing the waters), analyst day and road show materials. GlobalLogic's sustainability story, developed with guidance from 3ECON, was a factor in driving a higher IPO valuation, which was the basis for our acquisition partner's bid.”
