WANdisco doubles software engineering capacity with additional UK base

 

Sheffield, UK - WANdisco (LSE: WAND), a leading provider of global collaboration software to the software development industry, announces that it has established a new software development centre in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

 

The centre - the Company's second site in the UK - was opened yesterday by Northern Ireland Enterprise Minister, Arlene Foster, and has been supported by a £360,000 commitment from inward investment agency, Invest Northern Ireland.

 

WANdisco will hire up to 36 staff at the site, effectively doubling the Company's existing software engineering capacity, and playing a key role in supporting WANdisco's stated growth strategy.

 

Announcing the centre's opening David Richards, WANdisco Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said:

 

"We are aiming to achieve substantial growth within the next three years and the Belfast centre will play a critical role in supporting that growth. When we came to market we made a number of specific commitments, one of which was to invest in developing products that could help us move in to exciting new markets and geographies. The establishment of our new centre in Belfast is a clear example of our continued delivery on these promises."
