HA NOI (Biz Hub)— FPT Software established a new development centre in Cebu, the Philippines, to enhance its presence in Asia.
The new centre, which was opened late last month, will help fulfil the company's global strategy and continuous growth by achieving large IT resources of 30,000 employees by 2020.
FPT Software in the Philippines plans to add 150 software engineers to the company's resource pool by the end of this year. This number will increase 10-fold by 2020, equivalent to about 1,500 employees.
