“One thing is clear; businesses have significantly accelerated their move to digital. Our customers demanded new ways of working and best of breed technology and we were ahead of the curve. Our Cloud Platform and deep industry talent allowed us to respond swiftly and deliver on our customers’ key priorities, while helping them maintain business continuity and gain tangible value,” said Manav Garg, CEO and Founder, Eka Software Solutions.
