Roth, chief executive officer, Huron. “We continue to invest in our business to achieve our strategic growth objectives, including managed services, technology and analytics. The disruption facing our clients and primary end markets is substantial, stemming from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the rapidly evolving competitive landscape, and we believe this disruption creates significant opportunities for long-term growth for Huron.”
