Netigate, a tech firm that provides cloud-based services for online surveys, is to establish its international headquarters in Cork, creating 45 new sales, technical support and account management roles.

Netigate has around 1,500 customers in more than 30 countries, who range from small organisations to global companies, among them Electrolux, Ericsson, The AA Ireland, BMW Group and Spotify.

Speaking about the firm’s IDA-backed plans for Cork, Tobias Thalbäck, CEO of Netigate, said that the availability of talent was a clinching factor in the choice of location.

“I am confident that Cork is an ideal location for us and its thriving business ecosystem and skills availability will enable us to provide an even higher support to our growing customer base in Europe and beyond,” he added.

Founded in Sweden in 2005, Netigate sells a DIY-research platform used by companies to collect insights from employees and customers.
