Stefanini said his company was considering acquisitions in Europe for this year and was in talks to buy a company in Romania.

He added it also planned to hire 200 people in its two centers in Romania, in Bucharest and Sibiu, so that that the total number should reach 1,000.

The number of IT&C support centers has skyrocketed in Romania over the last few years, which are now employing several thousand Romanians who work for international giants like Alcatel Lucent, Ericsson, HP, IBM and Oracle, as well as for companies developed by local entrepreneurs.

Stefanini IT entered Romania via an international takeover of the US TechTeam company. Its global revenue stood at $730 million in 2011.
