Diligent to build product development centre in Budapest
 US software company Diligent is building an 11.3 billion forint (EUR 31.2m) global product development centre in Budapest, Péter Szijjártó, the foreign affairs and trade minister, said on Monday.
The Hungarian government is supporting the investment, which will create 300 jobs, with a 2.8 billion forint grant, Szijjártó said.
The company is looking to hire software developers, ERP developers as well as IT service and support professionals, the minister said.
Hungary entered the global race for job-creating investments at just the right time,
Szijjártó said, adding that the competition was getting tougher.
The success Hungary has enjoyed so far indicates that thanks its efforts over the last ten years, the Hungarian economy is among the winners of the new era of the global economy, he added.
