Welcoming the company’s investment, Kevin Holland, CEO Invest Northern Ireland said, “Invest NI has worked closely with ScreenCloud to secure this investment, by facilitating visits to Belfast to meet with investors, recruitment consultants and our two universities, as well as providing support towards the new jobs.

Half the roles already in place
