Gov. Nathan Deal announced Wednesday during an economic development mission to Brazil that Stefanini, a leading global information technology (IT) service provider based in São Paulo, Brazil, will create 400 jobs by the end of 2016 through an expansion of its Atlanta office.
“For more than two decades, Georgia has sustained a partnership with Brazil that is vital to our economic development efforts,” said Deal. “Throughout this mission and as evidenced by today’s announcement, I’ve seen firsthand the results of our continued ties to this important South American nation. I’m confident that Georgia’s highly skilled workforce and thriving technology cluster will create the ideal environment for Stefanini’s future growth in Atlanta.”
Stefanini has maintained a presence in Georgia for 10 years and has grown its employee base to be one of the largest employers in the area of IT services. With the expansion of its office in Atlantic Station, Stefanini will grow its revenue and employment by 50 percent with the potential to expand business in the future.
“It was a pleasure to meet with Governor Deal in São Paulo this week,” said Stefanini President and CEO Marco Stefanini. “We are thrilled to expand operations in Georgia. We have experienced companywide success, benefiting from a strong network of talent and customers. We look forward to growing our business globally with this newest expansion.”
