“The Equity Group was a great help in allowing Tecnoglass to become the first Colombia-headquartered company to list on the NASDAQ. They were available 24/7, provided expert guidance, arranged introductions, and helped us present the best possible message to investors. They are also playing a significant role now that Tecnoglass is a public company. We greatly appreciate their support and consider them an important part of our team.”
