BUFFALO, N.Y., Sept. 08, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CTG (NASDAQ:CTG), an information technology (IT) solutions and services company based in the United States, today announced that Xavier Bettel, Prime Minister of Luxembourg and Minister for Communications and Media, visited the CTG Delivery Centre Business and Operation Support (DC BOS) in Luxembourg on Thursday, September 3, 2015. The visit was a continuation of discussions between CTG senior leadership and Prime Minister Bettel during his recent visit to the United States aimed at meeting with international IT companies and in support of his strategy to make Luxembourg a center of excellence for the High-tech sector, known as the Digital Lëtzebuerg Project.
“We often look at what happens abroad, but we are not always aware of the enormous amount of work that is done in IT in our own country,” said Mr. Bettel. Since his government committed itself to making the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg a highly connected country and an active player in the digital economy with high-quality and secure services, Mr. Bettel, as Minister for Communications and Media, pays special attention to the IT sector in Luxembourg. In the presence of Cliff Bleustein, President and CEO of CTG, Filip J.L. Gydé, Senior Vice President and General Manager of CTG Europe, and Rénald Wauthier, Managing Director of CTG Luxembourg, Mr. Bettel was able to discover the wide range of capabilities of CTG, a company that has been established in the Grand Duchy since 1996 and employs over 200 employees, spread over two sites in Bertrange and Gasperich.
Mr. Gydé commented, “CTG has had a long standing presence in Luxembourg and is proud to be a part of the Digital Lëtzebuerg vision that will help drive further technology innovation and economic development in the country.” He continued, “CTG’s continued growth and success in Luxembourg demonstrates our commitment to the information and communication technologies sector in Luxembourg and that our reliable services and solutions continue to align with the needs and priorities of our clients. The services that CTG provides out of CTG BOS can serve as a model for other companies wishing to become a part of the Luxembourg business community.”
“CTG is one of the top three companies for PSF support in Luxembourg,” stated Mr. Wauthier. “Our Luxembourg operation will celebrate its twentieth anniversary in 2016. The company has been recognized each of the last five years as a Great Place to Work in Luxembourg, and in that time has experienced impressive growth in both the number of clients and employees. Our focus on attracting the most talented people and offering them a challenging and rewarding career guarantees the delivery of high quality services.”
CTG’s Luxembourg legacy includes the reliable provision of customized application development and testing services to Luxembourg government agencies, as well as testing services, 24/7 service desk support in six languages, and application monitoring solutions provided to Luxembourg and Belgium commercial clients from their DC BOS location.
