Costa Rican Technology firm will open offices in New York in Q1

Avantica Technologies, the leading provider of outsourced development of Custom Software products and Quality Assurance Services, with offices in San Jose, Perú and Silicon Valley, will open a new subsidiary in New York City. This decision responds to the current situation that has presented an ideal climate for the company's organic growth and will leverage from the economic recovery of this nation, after the recession experienced in recent years.

Avantica has a broad customer base in the area of Silicon Valley, California on the west coast of the United States, and having an office on site has allowed them to strengthen relations with their customers and achieve a better understanding of their needs. In recent months, the company's business has expanded to other areas of this country, especially in New York City and its surroundings.

The opening of an office in this area will not only improve relations with its customers locally, but also exploit the niche that was created for software development companies by the recent proliferation of start-ups in the Big Apple. Although there is a high demand for these services, the alternatives available in the area lack the competitive advantage that Avantica provides, such as: quality and continuous training of human resources, excellent English level of their workers, attractive cost / benefit ratio and project management methodologies of the highest quality that have been perfected over more than 15 years of experience on the field.

Avantica´s offices in New York City will be in charge of Mr. Luis Enrique Corrales, who will serve as Regional Sales Director. Luis Enrique has extensive experience in the field of information technology and sales management. Raised in the United States, he attended the University of Massachusetts at Amherst where he graduated as a Systems Engineer. At his return to Costa Rica, Luis Enrique complemented his career with a master's degree in Computer and Information Science at the University of Costa Rica. His academic and professional background, charisma and his knowledge of American culture, make him a great piece to lead this subsidiary.
