In the coming 12 months, the Irish division expects to nearly double in size, with a target of roughly 80 new professionals set by Venkatesh Priyadarshi, Head Operations and Business Development at TCS Ireland. “As the Irish economy has accelerated over the last number of months, we are seeing a pronounced increase in demand for the digital and business solutions we provide and expect to grow our business over the next twelve months,” comments Venkatesh.
