The Social Third: How Social Media is Transforming IT SalesGolin
Few things have captivated the imagination of communications professionals in recent years more than social media. But the journey forward has not been plain sailing, with some skeptics suggesting the medium is often an exercise in vanity characterized by too much broadcast and little meaningful engagement.
For consumer brands social media has proved a valuable route to reaching a broad audience. In the world of B2B marketing, however, where target audiences are considerably smaller and messaging is often more complex, some have suggested the social media is too lightweight or even irrelevant.
To uncover the truth about social media in the B2B space, GolinHarris teamed up with YouGov to complete the report, Social Media: How Social Media is Transforming Sales, which examines the ways in which IT buying decision makers are influenced by this medium. To complete the research for the report, YouGov conducted an online survey of people on both sides of the purchasing spectrum: the marketers from technology companies and the IT buyers they are trying to reach.
Top line findings reveal that any lingering doubt over social media’s importance to B2B marketers should be dismissed. In total, 34% of IT buyers surveyed – the ‘social third’ – have been positively influenced by online interactions with a brand when making a purchasing decision. Moreover, this ‘third’ actually wants to engage with brands online.
In this report, GolinHarris sheds light on how B2B marketers can most effectively engage customers online in order to drive sales.

Playing around with rural futures in Birmingham and Nebraskaruralfringe
Researchers from the University of Birmingham and the University of Nebraska collaborated on adapting an existing board game called Rufopoly to engage stakeholders in rural land use issues in the Great Plains region. Called Plainsopoly, the game was played by over 60 participants at a rural futures conference, who discussed land use scenarios and policy tools while moving around the board. The game facilitated productive dialogue on challenging issues and helped stakeholders gain new perspectives outside their usual viewpoints. Feedback from one game issue was also able to directly inform the US Secretary of Agriculture. Games are becoming an important public engagement tool for addressing complex planning and policy issues through facilitated learning in a fun, lower-stakes environment.

Welcome to the inaugural thl integrated
report. Two years ago we produced our first
sustainability report. We set some goals
and reported on what we knew at the time
from a sustainability perspective. We now
see how little we knew, how small the steps
were that we were taking and how our
measurement criteria and methods were
only the beginning. There is little doubt that
in another two years’ time we will look back
at this first integrated report and say the
same thing again - at least we hope we do,
as we need to keep evolving our approach to
how we work and what we stand for.
Our intent is to become a Future-Fit Business
(FFB)1. In this report, we will explain the
Future-Fit Business methodology, the criteria
and the positive impact we expect it to have
on thl into the future.

Navegando el desafío de transformación digital de los servicios financierosGlobant
Cómo las empresas de servicios financieros de Latam pueden utilizar las tecnologías digitales para acelerar su evolución y éxito en la "nueva normalidad"
Ante una época de cambios constantes, expectativas crecientes de los clientes, y del surgimiento disruptivo de nuevas tecnologías y nuevos competidores, los límites de las industrias se desdibujan y los modelos de negocios actuales comienzan a ser insuficientes para la generación sostenible de valor.
La industria de Servicios Financieros está viviendo una época de profunda transformación. Aquellas compañías con modelos de negocio y de servicio tradicionales, están viendo cada vez más afectadas su capacidad de sumar nuevos clientes, crecer y generar nuevos negocios, como así también su capacidad de atraer talento y desarrollar capacidades competitivas diferenciales.
Las respuestas tradicionales a estos desafíos, aunque pueden ayudar muchas veces a reducir las brechas, no logran solucionar los desafíos más profundos relativos a la agilidad organizacional y cultural, la flexibilidad y escalabilidad tecnológica, y la evolución de paradigmas pasados que deben actualizarse a los tiempos presentes.
El contexto actual generado por la Pandemia ha acelerado nuestras vidas digitales y de las empresas de manera drástica, dejando en claro la urgencia y criticidad de la transformación y evolución necesaria en cada aspecto de nuestras Organizaciones y la manera en que creamos y entregamos valor a los usuarios.
Frente a un futuro incierto, cada vez más volátil y dinámico, la “Nueva Normalidad” obliga a los Bancos a repensar sus modelos de negocio, cartera de servicios, procesos internos, modelos de relacionamiento con sus clientes, su visión del ecosistema y de cómo ser relevantes en la vida de sus clientes.
En un mundo en donde la agilidad y capacidad de adaptación es una de las ventajas competitivas más necesarias, la Industria de Servicios Financieros se encuentra ante el mayor desafío de transformación de las últimas décadas.
This document discusses the concept of augmented collaboration and how organizations have adapted to remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic. It provides examples of how Globant has implemented augmented collaboration through technologies like augmented coding, knowledge sharing, and analytics of team dynamics. Speakers at a Converge conference presented on topics like the future of education, digital transformation, and creating successful remote work teams. The discussion emphasizes that remote work requires a focus on communication, empowerment, and aligning teams to be as effective as in-person work.
El documento habla sobre los desafíos que trajo la pandemia de COVID-19 para las organizaciones y la necesidad de reinventar las dinámicas de trabajo adoptando tecnología para promover entornos laborales digitales. Globant propone la "Colaboración Aumentada" mediante el uso de inteligencia artificial para que los equipos distribuidos sean tan efectivos como cuando trabajaban de forma presencial. En el evento Converge 2020 se presentaron ejemplos de cómo lograr una verdadera colaboración entre equipos, industrias y sectores público-

Part 2 Deep Dive: Navigating the 2024 Slowdownjeffkluth1
Introduction
The global retail industry has weathered numerous storms, with the financial crisis of 2008 serving as a poignant reminder of the sector's resilience and adaptability. However, as we navigate the complex landscape of 2024, retailers face a unique set of challenges that demand innovative strategies and a fundamental shift in mindset. This white paper contrasts the impact of the 2008 recession on the retail sector with the current headwinds retailers are grappling with, while offering a comprehensive roadmap for success in this new paradigm.
Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

3. CEO’S LETTER
We increased the company’s revenue by more
than 26%, reaching $199.6 million in the year.
For the second consecutive year, we incorpora-
tedover1,300newGlobersandincreasedboth
private and social investment that enhanced
the indirect economic impact on the commu-
nities in which we operate.
We managed to cut down on our carbon
footprint per capita, thereby reducing the
environmental impact of our operation.
We remain strongly committed to this path of success,
and even though we have a long way to go, I am convin-
ced that our future prospects bode well for achieving
these goals. Our commitment to the values of our Mani-
festo, as well as our adherence to the ten principles of
the United Nations Global Compact, can be seen in the
management of the material sustainability issues that
are accounted for in this report. We know that these
values are what society needs in order to progress, and it
is our vocation to spread our enthusiasm and commit-
ment to bettering the world. We count on all of you to
join us on this path.
Thankyou!
It all started the day we founded Globant. We were four
friends dreaming at a bar with a clear objective in our
minds: We wanted to build a company for the long
term, one which challenged the status quo. We realized
that only a few companies were created with this
purpose built into their DNA. Therefore, when we
decided to found Globant, we wanted to think big. We
chose to follow a different path.
Thinking big defined the way we acted from day one,
even when we face the smallest of decisions. Maintai-
ning these determinations over time led us to have
sustainable growth, which became the first step
toward making our dream come true.
Following this path, in 2014, we became a public
company, since we did our IPO and now we are listed
on the NYSE under the ticket GLOB.
Today, after the IPO (Initial public offering) landmark,
we have even more plans than before and continue to
be excited about the future. We have always thought of
the IPO as a step towards our goal of building the best
company in the creation of innovative software
products by bringing opportunities to wherever the
talent is located. Of course, this was not the only news
in 2014. The opening of new offices in Mexico, Peru,
and New York marks new growth, providing better
service to our customers and expanding our develop-
ment potential globally.
This sustainable growth of the company was backed by
the positive indicators shown by our triple bottom line
outcomes:

4. ABOUT THE REPORT
Globant's fourth Sustainability Report seeks to emphasize
the continuity of the indicators previously published. After
each annual review, we see that the materiality of the
issues on which Globant has to focus is strengthened. Over
the years, a larger amount of data collected allows us to
better visualize our management trends. In addition, this is
the first report that includes indicators proposed by the
Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) for the
technologyindustry.Whileitisstilldevelopedbasedonthe
guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative G4, the
addition of SASB indicators is done in a complementary
manner, meeting the suggested best practices for compa-
nies that have made their initial public offering.
2014 was a year of sustainability
achievements:
We have made significant progress regarding
dialogue with key public such as customers,
holding individual conversations with their
sustainability leaders in order to understand
what they expect from Globant on sustainable
development.

5. BUSINESS PEOPLE
passing sustainability issues, it became a two-pronged
graph in which integrity is seen as a matter of business that
permeates throughout its value chain and not as an exter-
nal entity.
While this conceptual variable was considered from
the beginning, it was thought appropriate to give the issue
a special entity in order to make it more relevant. Three
years after that first framework, the Sustainability Council
understood that the company was ready for this change.
Globant's sustainability framework, typified for the first
time three years ago, was modified over time, in line with
the dialogues we maintained with stakeholders.
In 2014, this scheme showing the way Globant unders-
tands sustainable development (see above), had its most
significant graphic change without changing its contents
substantially. From a framework with three pillars encom-

investment to those who want to take their first steps in
the capital market without intermediaries or additional
fees.
The "investor consumer" is a new concept that aims at
democratizing the capital market and has the potential
to change the personal finances of millions of people
who now have the first chance to benefit from their
admission to an IPO.

but also we were the third company in the world to
open the possibility of people’s participation in the IPO
through platform Loyal3.

company’s creation,is the compass that guides us in all our
decisions.
In 2014, this growth target posed several challenges that
were successfully carried out.
Thebusinessrevenueincreasedby26.1%in2014,reaching
$199,604,996.22, and 13% of reinvested value ($25.263

As stated earlier, in July 2014, Globant became a public
company, since we did our IPO and now we are listed on
the NYSE under the ticket GLOB.
During this year of growth, we conducted the kickoff of
new development centers, opening our first offices in
Mexico City, Lima, New York, Medellin, Mar del Plata, and

12. Today,Globant offers services based on five continents,in
very different cultures and in a large variety of industries.
Understanding the needs of our customers and their
businesses is vital to being able to offer quality service
that meets their needs.
Fluid dialogue and constant feedback are key tools in our
development processes. Agile methodologies are useful
in order to have quick returns that enable continuous
improvement and satisfaction with the finished product.
In turn, international certifications endorse these proces-
ses and provide a guarantee for our customers. In 2014,
several changes were made in our management tools,
which improved the security,tracking,and monitoring of
projects.
In addition, standard ISO 9001:2008 was certified in 15
offices.Finally,5 offices and 214 projects were audited.
As for security, the same as last year, 51 minor incidents
were reported among all Globant offices worldwide,
mainly related to loss or theft of equipment inside and
outside the company. None of them involved unauthori-
zed disclosure of information or Globant's security infras-
tructure breaches..

13. Besides being one of the values of our Manifesto, Cons-
tantly Innovate is our way of doing things. It is the first
choice when thinking about any new action from the
products developed to the expansion or relationships
with Globers.
Innovation has always been a cross company value, and
in February 2014,we were recognized by Fast Company,
placing us among the ten most innovative companies in
South America.
By mid-year,we opened the first fully equipped MakerS-
pace in Buenos Aires headquarters. The space, which
seeks to bring together Globers willing to generate
innovative collaborative projects, will be replicated in
other offices starting in 2015. The main objective is to
create a place where projects implemented by the new
Wearables & Internet of Things Studio are elaborated,
becoming both an excellent meeting point for innova-
tion and an area where people quickly generate proto-
types that are massively developed afterwards.
Moreover, in 2014 we conducted the first lecture on
bioinformatics in the city of Tandil, Argentina, and the
first TEDMED event in Buenos Aires (nonprofit confe-
rences focusing on technology, health and medicine
operated under the TED Conference license). From
Globant Labs, our innovation and research lab, 3D
scanning and printing studies and applications like
Swipper were carried outin addition to enhancements
made to Cuando Llega App.
Set a destination and then get the path toward
it on the map.
Share the shop or business on a social network.
3D Scanning and Printing:
3D scanning and printing tests and trials were very
successful. Through Kinect scans with multiple uses
were performed,ranging from using self image in video
games to printing self-miniatures.
These trials were used to test different software in order
to determine which one best suited the proposed
needs. More info
Swipper:
It is an internal application that tells Globers who have to
travel for work, which shops operate with the corporate
card through smartphones and geolocation services.
With Swipper Globers can:
Select from five categories concerning the
business they want to see:Food,service stations,
taxi,car rental,and accommodations.
Access a map of shops located between 100
and 500 meters around them,according to the
selected category.
View location details such as name,address,
phone number,opening hours,coordinates,

After each event or meeting with people from the IT community, users were
consulted on the first three words they associated with Globant. In 2014, the
word "innovation" diminished slightly, due to the increased mention of other
words like "Success," "Growth," and "Expansion" that were connected to our
company going public.
QUESTION TO CUSTOMERS
"Please, set your level of satisfaction
in relation to innovation in the project developed."

15. Offering new professional development opportunities
for young people from around the world is one of our
primary pillars and an issue intrinsically related to the
sustainable development of the company.
From the Capacity area, we seek to achieve an organic
growth of the Glober community in order to maintain
the sustainability of the business and to continue provi-
ding quality and challenging opportunities.
In 2014, 1,364 new people were added, increasing the
final number of Globers to 3,775 by December. This
represents a 17% rise year-to-year, and a growth of 68%
in the last three years, when we first started to work
sustainability transversely throughout the company.
The performance achieved in 2014 is the result of a great
recruiting job, seeking to bring career development
opportunities to those cities where a large pool of talent
can be found. 35 events of engagement with the IT
community were organized in 15 different cities with
over 800 participants.

17. Our growth is intrinsically linked to the development of
our Globers.Globant is the group of people that makes it
up, and the professional development of its members
defines the level of maturity of the company and the
quality of the products it offers.For this reason,we stron-
gly emphasize that each Glober can plan their career
and carry it out as they see fit. In addition to the initiati-
ves we undertake every year, like the Career Day, the
Open Positions (a program that publishes the open
positions to apply in different projects around the
world), the training on the latest technologies, and
performance evaluations/acknowledgements in 2014, a
Mentoring Program was held for the first time.This invol-
ved Senior Globers accompanying a group of Globers
with less seniority to guide them in their career develop-
ment. Some 60 Globers participated in this initiative,
exceeding expectations of what was meant to be a pilot
test.
In 2014,more than 800 Globers were promoted and 272
modified the direction of their careers when changing
areas internally.Training hours increased by 15%.
In April 2014,a Design Center was launched in the city of
La Plata in which 100 students were trained in the latest
trends in design and user experience.Through this initia-
tive, leading experts in Visual Design and UX offered a
unique training in the market. The program was aimed
at employability and lasted four months.
Finally, we developed U-Grow again in different cities.
Through this program, we train young people in their
early college years in technologies,processes,methodo-
I enrolled in the Design Center without
really knowing what job opportunities I’d
have. Once the course was finished, Globant
offered me to join them as a Visual Studio
Designer within the UX & Social Studio.
Today I’m working in the company’s
Communications area, and I’m responsible
for the design of all internal and corporate
pieces. I think that having taken part in this
initiative gave me the opportunity to start a
career in my field, and in one of the most
important companies in my city.
logies,and software skills.The aim is to prepare them for
future employment by adding talent to the company
according to the knowledge and skills required by
today's market.This year we trained 47 youngsters.

19. DIVERSITY AND WORK & LIFE INTEGRATION
Woman’splaceatGlobant
The prevalence of men in the sector comes from
university, where enrollment continues to hover
around 80% against just 20% of women, in Latin
America.Thisdifference,whichisduetomanyfactors,is
replicatedinbusiness,andplacesashareofresponsibi-
lity on all organizations involved.
In Globant,we believe women’s space in technology is
extremely important in operation areas, staff, and
management. We believe that women have certain
skills in interpersonal relationships that make the
development of new business more fluid.
Therefore, together with the area of People, we have
assessedtheinternalsituationofwomenonkeyissues
such as salary, promotion, and the relationship
between family life and professional career.
Several studies conclude that people develop and perform
better when they feel happy at work. Moreover, this
happiness is closely related to the integration between
personal and work life. Such integration is not a balance
between two opposing things,but involves two aspects of
the same thing,life,which go hand in hand.
The management of diversity is understood from this same
perspective. We seek to create an environment in which
Globerscanfullydevelopwhilestillbeingwhotheyare,and
even promote their own identity.
From People area, we work with Globers to achieve this
integration both within and outside Globant. For this
reason,we have several initiatives in that direction:
Globant Healthy:
Vaccination campaign.
Medical Checkup.
HealthyWeek.
Premium medical coverage for the entire family.
In company physician.
Nutritionist.
Workplace exercises and stretching workshops.
Massage and fruit in the office.
Family:
Extended maternity and paternity leave.
Marriage and birth gifts.
Family days at all sites.
Have Fun @theoffice:
In March,we repeated the SurfTrip to La Paloma,
Uruguay,and in September the legendary Mini
SkiTrip to Las Leñas,Argentina.
As it has already become a tradition,several
happy hours are held throughout the year in all
Globant offices.The most important ones:
Globant's birthday in March,Spring Day in
September for Latin America,and Halloween in
October.
In addition,at the end of the year,each office
holds year-end celebrations.
Photography and inter-site video contests are
already another tradition at Globant.
The first chess tournament was organized.
Finally,in June we shared the SoccerWorld Cup
in all offices.

22. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Our community relations are based upon three principle
pillars: Inclusion-oriented education, technological
solutions for the local community, and promoting IT work
culture.
In 2014,we continued the training programs for job place-
ment by establishing alliances that favored the fulfillment
of the objectives pursued.We increased social investment
in the community thanks to some innovative and high
impact technological solutions, and we developed
programs and initiatives seeking to bring the threshold of
the IT industry closer to young people.
TesteAR:Tearing down walls
Five years after its creation,the TesteAR program is establi-
shing itself as a success story and as an example showing
thatqualifiedemploymentopportunitiescanbebroughtto
sectors of society that need them.
In 2014,the alliance with Arbusta social enterprise – provi-
der of digital services such as ManualTesting – was streng-
thened by empowering,training,and creating job opportu-
nities for young people from disadvantaged sectors.Arbus-
ta is the first company of Impact Sourcing in South America
and they are a key partner in the promotion of theTesteAR
program because it favors its self-sustainability,developing
production centers in the communities of beneficiaries and
hiring a large number of graduates.
This year, we trained over 50 young people in cities like
Rosario, Cordoba, and Buenos Aires with a graduation rate
of 81%.
Technology as a bridge
Inclusion can be understood in different ways. Offering
training programs such asTesteAR is one of them.
Likewise, technology, besides having become a source of
employment with high added value,can provide solutions
that foster inclusion in different ways.At Globant,we conti-
nue to develop products and applications by seeking to
supply inclusive answers to specific society problems.
Scholas Ocurrentes
The World Network of Schools for the Encounter was
inspiredbyPopeFrancis’effortstopromotetheconnection
of all schools around the world.With the goal of fulfilling its
mission,theVatican approached Globant in order to ask its
assistance in the conception and development of an
innovative technology platform.
Our team worked hard on a pro bono basis alongside
Google and Line64 in order to launch scholas.social,
platform in September, which allows schools around the
world to connect with each other, present their projects
and apply the necessary resources to carry them out.
22
23. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
DANE Project:
In 2014,we continued to participate in the Development
of Applications for Children and Youth with Special
Needs (DANE for its acronym in Spanish).
Besides the testing and enhancements made to Dibu-
grama and Sonigrama applications,a team of volunteers
worked with the Argentinean Association of Parents of
Autistic Children in two initiatives that will facilitate the
personal development of children with autism spectrum
disorders.
In October of this year, the DANE Project received the
Merit Award under the World Information Technology
and Services Alliance (WITSA) 2014 Global ICT Excellen-
ce Awards.
Blood Brothers:
Globant partnered with OurMark social enterprise to
carry out the project Hermanos de Sangre. A group of
volunteers worked throughout the year on the architec-
ture and development of the website. Its aim is to
connect hospitals and blood therapy centers in Latin
America with regular blood donors.
The idea is to facilitate access to potential donors and to
promote regular donations throughout the Hispanic
community by means of gamification techniques
inviting users to collaborate so that their closest centers
meet the goal of blood required.It is estimated that this
platform will be available during the second half of 2015.
Youth Observatory:
The University of Bologna, through its representation in
Argentina, is undertaking this initiative to be the first
comprehensive survey on trends, behaviors, expecta-
tions,and consumption of young people in Latin Ameri-
ca.Globant,as a founding partner of the project,worked
on a pro bono basis on the development of its website.
Cuándo Llega / Next2You:
Corrections, improvements, and new features were
introduced to Cuando Llega and Next2You. Cuando
Llega is a mobile application that allows users on public
transport in Rosario to know arrival times of buses in real
time. Next2You is an internal app that connects Globers
living close to organized carpooling).
23
24. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Work Culture and Volunteering
When thinking of volunteering proposals for our Globers
we try to offer initiatives in which the added value for the
community is related with the expertise and knowledge of
the volunteer.
Besides developing software for the community, this year
we launched pilot tests of two programs related to educa-
tion:the Hour of Code and theTeacher's Club.
The Hour of Code:
This is an international event that seeks to teach program-
ming in an hour to people between 4 and 104 years old! It’s
performed in more than 180 countries and has already
trained nearly 100 million children.
At Globant, a volunteer group adapted the presentation
and conducted The Hour of Code in public schools in four
cities (Buenos Aires,Cordoba,Resistencia,and Mar del Plata).
Teacher’sClub:
Teacher's Club is a similar project. It involves not only
programming instruction, but it also offers Globers the
possibility to give lectures within their fields of expertise.In
this way, designers, project managers, functional analysts,
and manual testers can also provide their experience and
testimonials to high school students.
In 2014, a pilot test was conducted in four cities with the
participation of 55 Globers covering issues such as:
"Programming for non-programmers,”"Web design," "Safe
use of social networks," "Testing:Working to find someone
else’s mistakes," " Why study Engineering," "Job placement:
HowtocreateaCVandfaceaninterview,”and"Howtolead
teams," among others. Next year, we expect to carry out
both programs in every city in which we operate.
Other Initiatives:
Moreover,other social initiatives were generated in order to
strengthen Globers’bonds within their respective commu-
nities:
Blood donation campaign at the office:60
volunteers participated in 6 cities and 45 units
of blood were donated.
Noche Buena paraTodos (Christmas Eve for All)
Campaign:We invited teams of Globers to
assemble a Christmas box for needy families.
This campaign was conducted in 15 offices and
involved more than 400 Globers who packed
130 boxes.
We conducted monetary and material
collection campaigns in order to face specific
emergencies.We also participated in donations
of hardware and office furniture,and even a
financial contributions for the construction of a
secondary school in a shantytown near Buenos
Aires.

26. INTEGRITY
Globant has adopted a Code of Ethics (CoE) approved by
the Board that is aligned with the best corporate gover-
nance practices and the requirements of the Sarba-
nes-Oxley Act.The CoE lists a guide of principles neces-
sary in order to promote and ensure good behavior
within the organization. It is a statement that sets the
highest standards of honesty,integrity,and morality.The
Audit Committee composed of independent directors
will ensure its proper fulfillment, dissemination, and
updating.
Through its different sections, the CoE establishes the
following guidelines:
To comply with laws,regulations,and polices
applicable to business good practices.
To adhere to the United Nations Global
Compact.
To establish a policy of equal opportunities to
its employees.
To set a health and safety policy in the
workplace.
To apply a policy of protection and proper use
of company assets.
To provide guidelines regarding conflicts of
interest concerning employees,including
personal and business relationships.
To ensure a benefit & gifts policy.
To look after the confidentiality and use of
privilege information policy.
The code can be viewed here.
Reporting Mechanisms
In Globant, we have established a protocol to address
Globers’ potential actions against the CoE. Even though
we recommend resolve these situations directly with
those involved, for cases where this is not possible, an
internal reporting channel with an exclusive mailbox
was enabled to ensure confidentiality and impartiality
for each complaint. Moreover, considering actual best
business practices, we are in the process of hiring an
additional reporting channel to be run by an external
provider independent of Globant.
Control Processes
The manager responsible for SOX compliance (Sarba-
nes-Oxley Act in the United States) has scoped in the
processes and sub-processes subject to review. To this
end,we took into account the processes reflected in the
financial report which also are considered material or
significant.In order to determine the relevance of each,a
quantitative and qualitative approach was adopted.
Through the quantitative approach, those financial
statement accounts, which are considered to be signifi-
cant or material because of their amount, are scoped in.
While the qualitative approach scopes in those financial
report accounts due to factors such as volatility, degree
of subjectivity, activity volume, contingency level, or
accounting complexity that are considered significant or
material.

27. ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS
In 2014, we held a series of talks with our customers’
Sustainability officials. We ascertained the importance
each stakeholder gives to mitigating environmental
impacts in all operations. This led us to reassess our
materiality matrix and give this issue a higher level of
relevance. We outlined a five-year action plan with the
goal of reducing energy consumption per capita in each
office.To do so, a Chief Security Officer was included at
Globant's Sustainability Council, who took over the
development of this plan.
The first stage of the project (to be undertaken during
2015) is linked to an exhaustive consumption survey. In
2014, an investment in localized energy meters was
performed, and these devices were placed at the Head
Office and in two other departments.Beyond this ambi-
tious long-term project that will result in an environ-
mental management system we continued to work on
maximizing resources and recycling materials.
In this regard,our main achievement was the more than
15% decrease in our energy consumption per capita,
which is where we had the greatest environmental
impact.In addition,server virtualization was maintained
30-1 even with a 35% increase of actual memory
consumption.In addition,low-power data centers have
reduced their gigabyte (Gb) consumption use by 15%.
Finally, local data centers meeting ASHRAE standards-
maximize cooling and reduce expenditure.This allowed
us to continue growing as a company, maintaining and
even reducing our consumption ratios. For 2015, we
have developed a plan to replace 65 GB of RAM with 380
GB. This will allow us to maintain the growth of the
company by bringing the VM ratio to 35-1.
Thanks to agreements with local governments, our
recycling work done with cooperatives of urban waste
recuperators and the commitment of Globers to separa-
te our own waste doubled the amount of recycled mate-
rial,reaching two tons in six offices.We hope to replicate
this program in other sites,such as La Plata and Montevi-
deo,whose cities also have recycling material programs.

30. SECTOR & REGION EMPOWERMENT
During 2014,Globant consolidated its leadership,increa-
sing its sphere of influence at the regional and sectoral
level. Such leadership was the result of work carried out
both in corporate areas and with the general public.
From its active participation in national chambers and
local clusters, Globant worked to promote the study of
hard sciences in order to bring the company closer to
universities and to coordinate with local governments in
order to achieve sustained growth in the industry.
In turn,through civil society organizations,the promotion of
entrepreneurship remained a key pillar in the relationship
between Globant and the community. This year Guibert
Englebienne, Globant's CTO & co-founder, was elected
presidentofEndeavorArgentinabecauseofhiscommitment
to entrepreneurship in the country and its ability to lead the
localchapterofthisflagshiporganization.
As for the general public, Globant continued opening its

For the preparation of this report, customers, employees,
and directors/managers were directly consulted while
stakeholders such as Government, industry, suppliers, and
the media were indirectly consulted through the corres-
ponding operating areas. The Sustainability Council was
responsible for the coordination of these actions.
Next year’s report is expected to have a direct consultation
mechanism with involved groups in order to enrich and
improve the participation process of stakeholders.
In Globant's materiality matrix, material issues and the
degree of impact on Globant's stakeholders and the
influence groups for each of them are all presented.

Job market behavior of interest to employees and university students.
Of interest to people linked to technology employment at locations of operation.
These two issues are addressed jointly. Their impact is high both internally and externally as it affects
business continuity.
The IT industry is a focus industry for the governments of the countries where Globant operates. The promotion of
the industry is an important issue.
Innovation is a key process in the organization strategy.
Globant seeks to position itself as a role model in employment. This impacts on employees and to a lesser extent,
on the sector labor market. Innovation and entrepreneurship challenges as well as the overall profile of the company
cannot be addressed without high performance levels of employees. These aspects make of Globant an attractive place
to work.
Globant is not part of the first tiers of technology companies, but has a strong leadership in Latin America.
The ecosystem of companies linked to Globant shapes the IT industry in Latin America. The industry looks at
Globant as a role model.
The industry is encouraged in certain countries of operation, so that compliance is key.
As indicated in "market presence", Globant's contribution to the industry in the Latin American region is representative.
The aspect is key for internal audiences as Globant is a knowledge-based organization. Managing this aspect
contributes to the sustainability of the value proposition from Globant to its employees.
This aspect was included as material as part of customers’ engagement process among stakeholders.
