In the previous article I was inviting you to come here, to Romania, and more specifically to Iasi. I told you about the many advantages of establishing here a remote office for your business (http://bit.ly/mMN3GH). But this is far from being enough reason to invest here.
So, who else is here in Iasi? What other companies had the nerve to invest here, to build large offices and employ tens and hundreds of people?
Here are some of the big names that came, in a random order... ok, except the first one which is not that random, but currently I work for them.

Also, you might want to try the quality of service here, and what is a better way of doing it than outsourcing some of your R&D work to our local companies? I am not getting into details because at the moment I don’t know them all, and I would hate to get them wrong. What can I tell you is that we have so many of them, developing for all known platforms, OSes, and using all the programming languages and environments you know.
I will reserve one of the next articles, exclusively for 100% outsourcing.
If you wish to find out more, just send me a message.
