Cegeka, a global Information and Communication Technology (ICT) service provider group based in Belgium, today announced the opening of its newest office in the heart of the Greek capital, Athens. The new office currently serves as the base for Cegeka’s 50-employee Global Delivery Center, which aims to double its workforce to 100 by the end of the year. The official inauguration of the new office took place on Wednesday, in the presence of the Belgian Ambassador to Greece and the economic and commercial delegation of the Belgian Embassy.
“This strategic move to expand our customer service team in Greece was a targeted decision, based on the presence of skilled IT professionals, the common cultural references and entrepreneurial spirit that coexist in the country,” said Tom De Vos, Executive Vice President Global Delivery of Cegeka. “The establishment of our own office underlines our commitment to Greece and our belief in its future. We look forward to further strengthening our partnership with the country’s talented human resources and aim to grow our team to 100 people by the end of the year, with the ambition of creating a Greek team of 300 IT specialists, specializing in hybrid cloud, cyber security, digital workplace, observability, software engineering, etc., by 2026.”
The investment in the Greek office is aligned with Cegeka’s vision for future growth. “There is a growing need to strengthen our capacity to assist our customers in their ongoing digital transformation,” said Stijn Bijnens, CEO of Cegeka. “We are confident that our expansion in Greece will provide Cegeka with greater flexibility and growth, allowing us to better serve our customers across Europe.” Cegeka’s teams in Greece are part of the company’s Global Delivery Center – together with teams in Romania, Moldova, Colombia and India – from where customers are served.
The opening of the office in Athens consolidates Cegeka’s presence in Greece, while at the same time laying the foundations for the next phase of expansion: the establishment of a second Greek office in Thessaloniki.
