30 high-skilled jobs are to be created at a new global research and development centre in Galway.
Minister for Housing & Local Services Michael Finneran today announced the opening of the new centre for US company Lumension, a global leader in operational endpoint management and security.
Lumension's expansion into Ireland has been supported by the Government through IDA Ireland.
The new office will serve as a hub for Lumension's product research and development, initially creating 30 jobs in the region for highly-skilled individuals.
Commenting on the announcement, Minister Finneran said the decision by a company of such a calibre to choose Ireland as the location for 'this significant investment in information technology adds further impetus to Ireland's reputation as a leading location for software development operations'.
