Eugen Schwab-Chesaru, vice-president for CEE with Pierre Audoin Consultants (PAC), part of Teknowlogy group, says there have been talks recently with a major European IT services group that does not have a center in Romania yet and it is most likely to decide to open a center by yearend and hire between 500 and 800 IT specialists for the German market.

He added several major companies have made similar decisions to expand in Romania.

“The European group’s deliberation comes after similar decisions made both by groups headquartered in Europe and by US groups or even major players of India that are quickly bolstering their resources in the eastern part of the EU, inclusively from regulation reasons. Hence, the conjuncture remains favorable for Romania”.
