Skapar två nya leveranscentra i Vilnius
Stockholm — 17 december 2019 — Det ledande teknologiföretaget HCL Technologies (HCL) utökar sin verksamhet I Litauen och öppnar två nya leveranscentra i huvudstaden Vilnius. De nya leveranscentralerna, Asgaard Keys och Technopolis Alfa erbjuder HCL-kunder i Baltikum, Norden och Benelux-regionen de senaste tjänsterna inom digital transformation.
Enligt Simonas Kėpšta, Chief Adviser till Litauens president inom ekonomi och social policy, är de företag som sätter grunden för innovation i regionen viktiga för landets utveckling inom den digitala ekonomin och en hållbar affärskultur.
“Fintech- och tjänsteleverantörer har redan gjort betydande avtryck I Litauen och vi är stolta över de investeringar som görs av internationella företag som HCL”, säger S. Kėpšta.
HCL har ett världsomspännande nätverk av leveranscentra och innovation labs. Satsningen i Litauen innebär att HCL har en av sina största verksamheter i EU i landet. Verksamheten ska leverera heltäckande tjänster kring infrastruktur och applikationsutveckling till sina nearshore-kunder. HCL har fler än 10 000 anställda I Europa, vilka servar fler än 200 kunder. HCL har funnits I Litauen sedan 2016 och har nu cirka 500 anställda I landet.
”Vi avser att genomföra betydande strategiska investeringar i Litauen, säger Sudip Lahiri, SVP and Head of Financial Services, Europe, HCL Technologies. “Litauen är ett land med en hel del kompetens, är strategiskt placerat inom EU och har starka kopplingar till den nordiska marknaden. De nya kontoren i Vilnius är en viktig milstolpe i vår satsning på regionen och för att hjälpa våra kunder att bli ännu mer framträdande i Litauens tillväxt och innovationssatsningar.
Mantas Katinas, Managing Director på Invest Lithuania säger, “Litauen erbjuder multinationella företag välutbildad arbetskraft och många möjligheter att samverka. Jag är glad att se hur nästa generations teknologiföretag, som HCL, väljer Litauen för att etablera sina knutpunkter för sina europeiska satsningar.
I samband med investeringen ska HCL attrahera inhemsk kompetens inom infrastruktur, automation, blockchain och andra nya digitala teknologier. HCL planerar att skapa ett ekosystem av partners som ett sätt att skapa ytterligare samverkan och tillväxt. Det omfattar exempelvis samverkan med lokala universitet, lokala och internationella företagskunder, ledande fintech-bolag och Invest Lithuania.
