and the line item “Additions of intangible assets related to business combinations” for those same periods in the two reconciliation
tables above.

In reference to the Staff’s specific comment
regarding the similarity in description between the line items in the table on page 74 and the IFRS measures in the investing activities
in the statements of cash flows, the Company will clarify the wording in future filings as follows: change the captions "Acquisition
of property and equipment" and "Acquisition of intangible assets" in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows replacing
them as "Cash outflows for property and equipment" and "Cash outflows for intangible assets", respectively.

The Company will include the additional disclosure proposed above in
its future filings of its annual report on Form 20-F.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

3,2 Goodwill, page F-18

 2. We note your policy states that you allocate goodwill to a unique cash generating unit. Please tell
us how you applied the requirements in paragraph 65 of IAS 36 in your determination of a unique cash generating unit. In doing so specifically
tell us how you identified cash generating units in accordance with paragraphs 68 to 73, and how you allocated goodwill acquired in business
combinations to a cash generating unit, or groups of cash generating units, that is expected
to benefit from the synergies of the combination, as outlined
in paragraphs 80 to 87 of the Standard.

RESPONSE: The
Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment. According to IAS 36, an asset’s cash-generating unit is the smallest group of assets
that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
In accordance with the requirements of paragraph 68, the Company has determined that it has one cash generating unit as it has only one
group of assets that generates inter-dependent cash inflows. For instance, for business strategy purposes, a service originally provided
from one entity can be provided by one or more other entities, if management determines that doing so is more efficient for serving the
customer or providing a certain specific type of service (considering costs, required capabilities, availability of resources, client
demands and time zones, among others). In addition, in accordance with paragraphs 69, there are no cash inflows from an asset (or group
of assets) that are largely independent from other assets (or group of assets), as the business is monitored and decisions are made at
a consolidated level and managed without regard to geographical differences and separate legal entities, which have a very high degree
of interaction.

In line with this approach, goodwill
arising from acquired companies does not generate independent cash inflows for the Company, because acquired companies are always fully
integrated into the business of the Company (e.g., employees of the acquired company could provide services to existing customers of Globant
and of the same nature as those already provided, and employees of Globant could provide services to customers of the acquired company
and of the same nature as those already provided to such customers by the acquired company), and thus acquired companies do not represent
a separate cash generating unit. That is, an acquired entity may have its own original customer lists, but this is not evidence of the
existence of a different cash generating unit since those customers may be subsequently served by other entities of the Company.

    Very
    truly yours,

    Globant
