Despite some setbacks we have experienced because of the pandemic, the company has been in a growth trajectory across all aspects of businesses, whether it’s client roster, projects handled, number of employees or global presence – since we began this journey nearly two decades ago,” said Haenisch.

“Having more stakeholders than ever before, we see the need to focus more on our very own storytelling not just to have a cohesive voice as a brand, but most importantly communicating our intention and values responsibly as an employer and one of the key players in this ecosystem.
