Insight Global, based in Atlanta, Georgia, is one of the fastest growing providers of information technology ("IT" ) staffing solutions in North America with nearly $350 million in annual sales. Insight Global operates a nationwide network of 21 regional offices, providing exceptional staffing solutions and customer service to over 1,500 customers. Insight Global fills nearly 10,000 IT staffing placements each year for a diverse range of Fortune 1000 corporations in end markets such as technology, healthcare, energy, telecom, financial services and government.

Capital as our financial sponsor, we have enjoyed an excellent working relationship with the H.I.G. team and shared in great successes," said Glenn Johnson, Chairman of Insight Global. "H.I.G. has provided outstanding support with both strategic direction and capital. Together we have grown Insight Global into a leading national IT staffing solutions company that will continue to provide exceptional service and value to our customers."
