WASHINGTON state-based technology firm Unosquare is setting up a new office at former legal buildings in Belfast city centre.
The Portland firm, which also has offices in the US and Mexico and employs more than 500 people globally, has acquired 11,000 sq ft of office space at Mays Chambers on May Street.
The company, which originally set up in Belfast in 2017, currently employs 50 staff in the city, though the move to Mays Chambers will see the regional operation double in size to at least 100 people by the end of this year.
The letting was secured by Osborne King on behalf of landlords Orby Investment, which is also in the process of developing Erskine House, a 100,000 sq ft office development on Belfast’s Chichester Street which will be occupied by HMRC on completion.
Unosquare chief executive Giancarlo Di Vece said: “We have found incredibly talented and innovative individuals in Belfast.
"We continue to be committed to investing in the growth of our operations in Northern Ireland; through our new premises, the Mays Chambers building, we will double in size in the short-term."
Richard McCaig from Osborne King said: "We're delighted to have secured Unosquare as a tenant for Mays Chambers and it's fantastic to see their continued expansion in Belfast."
