DataArt has expanded into Serbia with a new office and partnership with Belgrade-based international software development company, Software Nation.
“I’m very excited about the launch of DataArt Serbia,” Software Nation founder, Erik Mathew Popovic, who was also recently appointed as SVP of DataArt Balkans, said, according to a press release. “We’re ready to embark on large-scale outsourcing projects, as DataArt offers diverse experience and exposure to the best development practices and clients across industries. Building the very first team here and supporting our employees on a global journey, with a people-centric company like DataArt, is a great honor."
The new establishment has been assigned a team of 40 staff members, and will be fully up and running by April, a press release confirms.
With the new launch, the company hopes to expand its global reach and strengthen current infrastructure and Software Nation’s local workforce and meet rising demands in the general software development and digital transformation market.
Under his new role with the global software engineering firm, Popovic will contribute more than a decade of tech experience as he oversees the company’s Serbian-based operations. Credited with significant contributions to the local IT sector, he founded Software Nation more than 10 years ago.
“As always, we have relied on local professionals who were qualified and interested in helping us grow,” head of organizational development at DataArt, Mikhail Zavileysky, said. “We feel confident about establishing our presence in Belgrade because of the well-rounded tech sector, and the solid tech talent in the country and the region.”
