Bell Integrator, a Russian system integrator that offers consulting, technology and outsourcing services, has opened its first office in Europe, in the capital city of Latvia, Riga.
This will be the company’s fourth foreign representative outside of its domestic market, but the first one in the European Union, it says. Bell currently operates its subsidiaries in the US, Mexico, Belarus and Kazakhstan.
With the new office in Riga, the company will be able to better serve its European customers thanks to geographic proximity and from the location within the European Union, it says. Also, Riga offers the availability of highly skilled resources, new market opportunities and new local customers with loyal attitude toward the Russian IT companies, it says. Additionally, Latvia offers relatively open migration policy which combined with the lack of language barriers adds to the attractiveness for both Russian and English speaking professionals, it says.
“Entering the European market, without exaggeration, is a strategically important step marking a new milestone for our company. This event opens up new horizons and will provide European customers with superior service,” comments Yuri Latin, CEO of Bell Integrator.
Bell, which employs around 2,000 people, is a specialist in “business critical solutions for complex IT problems” and provides lifecycle services for telecoms, finance, transportations and healthcare enterprises.
