Hitachi Solutions Europe opened new facilities in Matosinhos
In this first phase, the Japanese company specialized in digital transformation will employ 100 people, but the goal is to double this number over the next five years, said Ana Vale.

Hitachi Solutions Europe has invested more than two million euros in its new facilities in Matosinhos, which will employ around 100 people, confirmed the human resources director.
In this first phase, the Japanese company specialized in
digital transformation will employ 100 people, but the goal is to double this
number over the next five years, said Ana Vale. The goal is to attract young graduates in the fields of
management, economics, finance, computer engineering, data science and
artificial intelligence, she specified.
According to Ana Vale, retaining and attracting young talent in
Portugal, particularly in the north of the country, was one of the factors that
led Hitachi to set up in Matosinhos, in Porto.
Portugal "has some of the best and brightest young
people", playing a key role "in numerous projects across Europe and
around the world", said CEO Steven French, in a statement.
"It's fantastic to see people who joined us a few years
ago already taking on important leadership roles in major international
projects for our clients and, with the opening of this new office, we begin the
next phase of our growth in Portugal," he added.
Dedicated to implementing digital solutions for large
European companies, Hitachi Solutions Europe has more than 3,500 employees
worldwide, 1,000 in Europe and are present in more than 11 countries.
