The growth rate is 30% per year, which is higher than that of its communications business and the market potential remains significant for the next few years.

“Our IT systems integration business stands at tens of millions of euros a year with a growth rate of 30% year on year,” Ovidiu Ghiman, chief commercial officer business segment with Telekom Romania, a group with almost EUR1 billion annual revenue, told ZF.

“The IT&C market is one of the few that is growing because the need for digitalization is extremely real considering companies have realized that technology can actually help them improve efficiency of their business,  manage relations with customers and even identify new ways of monetization.”

Under the circumstances, Telekom has several hundred positions open for people to work in the IT&C solution delivery area, he added.

“We’ve been hiring around the clock for the digitalization, IT&C and customer service areas. We have more than 400 positions open.”
