Eurofins Scientific, a global leader in bio-analysis, inaugurated its new offices in Costa Rica and foresees hiring up to 50 Costa Ricans with knowledge in Information Technology, professionals related to IT infrastructure, Data Center and IT operations, as well to application development, architecture, design, and support.

Eurofins invested US$250,000 on this new service site in Costa Rica.

Eurofins chose Costa Rica as the location to open its new site based on the country’s good reputation in terms of education, especially in the Information technology field, as well as for the good image of the IT services that big companies transferred to Costa Rica. Eurofins will also, over time, hire up to 50 Costa Rican engineers.

“We thank Eurofins the trust given to Costa Rica by opening this new center of technology. This government will continue to work for the investment climate and the quality of the human talent that make Costa Rica today an attractive place to invest; so it continues, as well, strengthening and adapting to the requirements of the world’s labor industry” affirmed the Minister of Communications, Juan Carlos Mendoza.

Sajith Chakkingal, Offshore Director – IT Infrastructure & Operations of Eurofins, commented: “We are very happy to be able to announce the inauguration of our new IT support/services site in Costa Rica. This will be Eurofins’ third service delivery center, following one in Bangalore (India) and one in Penang (Malaysia). Our new site in Costa Rica will deliver offshore IT services for our operations in North and South America.”

Jorge Sequeira, Managing Director of CINDE, added: “Eurofins trusted Costa Rica and its human talent to expand their operations to provide quality IT services to the company’s global operations. In 2017 alone, Costa Rica IT and IT-related services exports represented 48% of the total country’s services exports and we expect to increase this number with the help of well-recognized companies such as Eurofins.”
