Foyle SDLP MLA Colum Eastwood said: "The investment by A2E Venture Catalysts in Maydown Precision Engineering is testament to the great strides made by the local firm, and it is a real vote of confidence in Derry's skills base.
"This announcement will provide renewed hope for Derry's many highly skilled and well-trained people who are seeking employment.
"The creation of 40 high-end engineering jobs is a step in the right direction for our city which has, in recent years, gained the unfortunate title of biggest unemployment hotspot; not only in the North but across England, Scotland and Wales as well."
