The move is a part of FPT Software’s global growth strategy in 2023.

The Vietnamese IT firm will continue to leverage and build upon Intertec’s delivery centers and operational experience in Costa Rica, Colombia, and Mexico, which are attractive service hubs and renowned outsourcing destinations in the Latin America region.

Intertec International’s CEO Rickard Hedeby said: “We have worked with FPT Software for several years, and we look forward to taking our relationship to the next level. By combining forces, we can provide greater value to our customers and expand career opportunities for our employees.”

In the next two years, FPT Software sets its sight on growing its headcount in the Latin American region to 1,000.
