Background

Since the beginning of 2020, GloraX has launched an IT accelerator and has collected a lot of expertise. There was a change of team, a change of attitude to the product, an understanding that it was necessary to move away from the creation of separate projects, to come to standardization, which presupposes a certain level of quality that customers should receive. Any buyer has to be sure that they are buying a Glorax project that has high quality characteristics. That led to the realization that rebranding was necessary. GloraX wanted to show the market and the consumer that the whole philosophy of the company and the positioning had changed.
