The first-half of 2024 saw us continue our strong growth trajectory as a business and continue to outperform the consulting market. We had four record months in half-one '24, highlighting the growing demand for our services across the Elixirr Group.

With regards to acquisitions, we've successfully integrated Insigniam into the wider Elixirr Group and are starting to see increased demand for their services. This year included rebranding iOLAP to Elixirr Digital, reflecting further integration and enhancing the group of talented people who make up Elixirr Digital.

We've had the first vest of options for employees that were with us pre-IPO, a proud moment for the firm to see the equity incentive schemes coming to life and generating value for our team. In August, we received the great news that we have been recognized for the first time on the World's Best Management Consulting Firms 2024 list by Forbes.
