In the first nine months of 2013, companies in the IT&C sector were the biggest office space tenants. Countrywide, 58 companies in the IT&C industry signed rental contracts in the first nine months, occupying a total surface of 55,354 square meters.

By cities, most IT&C companies rented office spaces in Bucharest (88%), followed by Iasi, Timisoara, Cluj Napoca, and Sibiu.

“The IT&C remains the most dynamic sector in the economy as besides Romanian companies and multinationals present on this developing market, there are new companies that choose Romania for their IT&C investments. The expansion of these companies leads to a need for more office space and approximately 30% of office rental transactions in 2013 involved IT&C companies,” Alexandru Petrescu, managing partner la ESOP Consulting/Corfac International, said in a press release Monday.
