Technology and telecommunications recruiter Eutopia International Group is to launch its new South African office in Century City, Cape Town, next month.

The company is headquartered in the UK and has a further office in Dubai, but over 35% of business currently comes from the African continent.

Cape Town is described by Eutopia as a “thriving ‘Silicon Africa’ hub” with a “growing reputation as a continental technology centre”.

Middle East and Africa [MEA] managing director Darren Franks comments: “Covering both the domestic and African markets across the region, we will be offering both permanent recruitment and contract services to our clients and candidates.

“The new office will provide us with a valuable springboard to the African continent and offer a more local service to our key clients.”
