Hexaware Technologies shares rise 3% after partnering with San Francisco Unicorns in Major League Cricket
Hexaware’s public issue is the largest in India’s IT services sector since Tata Consultancy Services’ Rs 4,700-crore IPO more than two decades ago.
Shares of Hexaware Technologies rose 3 percent to Rs 828 after the company announced a partnership with the San Francisco Unicorns, a Major League Cricket (MLC) team. The collaboration, which runs through the 2026 season, includes Hexaware branding on the team’s helmets and caps, along with perimeter signage at matches.
The IT services firm said the partnership aligns with its focus on community engagement and digital solutions in sports. The San Francisco Unicorns, which reached the 2024 MLC Championship final, are preparing for their third season in 2025, with matches set to be played in the Bay Area, Texas, and North Carolina.
