Cloud adoption and digital transformation drives momentum in EMEA
region
DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
New
Relic, Inc. (NYSE: NEWR), provider of real-time insights for
software-driven businesses, today announced the opening of its new
European Headquarters in Dublin. The company opened its first European
headquarters in Dublin in 2014 and has since grown its team to about 100
employees. Its new space at 31-36 Golden Lane is expected to provide the
local Ireland team the space to grow up to 300 team members as well as
provide state of the art facilities for hosting customers, meetups, and
connecting with the local community.
In addition to growing its team in Ireland, New Relic has opened offices
across Europe to support its ongoing customer growth, including in
London, Munich, and Zurich, as well as launching its European
Development Center in Barcelona.
The company is supported by the Irish Government through IDA Ireland.
Speaking at the company’s office opening event, Minister Pat Breen TD
said, “I am delighted to unveil New Relic’s new European HQ in Dublin.
Ireland has become a launchpad for high-growth companies from across the
world, and it is very encouraging to witness New Relic's expansion over
recent years as well as their impressive new building in the area.”
According to IDC1, by 2021, public cloud services spending
for the EMEA (Europe Middle East Africa) region will total to over $60
billion. New Relic sees companies’ continued investment and focus on
cloud adoption and digital transformation as a tailwind for its own
growth, as the company helps customers adopt, and optimize performance
in, the cloud.
“Our New Relic Dublin team is delighted to have an expanded location and
presence in Ireland, from which we can further support our EMEA
customers and partners and provide a hub to come together for meetings,
meetups, and more. We’ve thrived as a team in Dublin and I’m thrilled to
see us embarking on this next chapter as we continue our efforts to
foster growth and leadership in the region,” said Glenn Cahill, VP of
Commercial Sales, New Relic.
“Dublin has provided a vibrant home to our EMEA team since 2014 when we
established our original European headquarters in the city. As many
leading companies in Europe have accelerated the adoption of cloud and
digital transformation, we’re excited about the opportunity to help
these organizations get real-time performance insights to innovate
faster,” said Mark Sachleben, CFO, New Relic.
“The European headquarters in Dublin is an important location for New
Relic as it both serves and grows its customer base in Europe. Ireland
is home to many established and high-growth companies. International
companies continue to be attracted to Ireland due to the ease of access
to a talented workforce in the region,” said Martin Shanahan, CEO, IDA
Ireland.
