TDWP move to European HQ in North West
The Data Warehousing Practice (TDWP) has announced the opening of a new 4000 sq ft premises in the University of Ulster’s Science Research Park in Derry.
The company, a provider of data warehousing and web integration services and solutions, has moved from the Technology and Software Innovation Centre (TSIC) in UU’s Magee campus where it began in 1999 with three people, to the new offices which will accommodate a current team of 30 staff.
Supporting and recognising the calibre of indigenous technology companies coming out of the North West of the province, Deputy First Minister Mark Durkan officiated at the launch.
TDWP has expanded its software development and sales teams over the past month, and will be continuing the recruitment drive for staff who will be located in the new premises. TDWP has doubled in size in each of the last two financial years and this growth has been further enhanced in the last quarter due to the success of its ‘Commix’ product attracting major European clients and partners.
John Cowper, Managing Director of TDWP said: “Indigenous technology companies from Northern Ireland are making significant footprints on the international market. This is being pioneered by the entrepreneurial spirit, which is prevalent in the technology community at present, coupled with a highly educated workforce. We have attracted staff from all over Ireland and the UK to the software development team and look forward to continuing our growth strategy across Europe facilitated by landmarks such as today’s event of moving to new, larger premises.”
Professor Chris Barnett, Director for Science and Technology Innovation, University of Ulster, commented: “We are delighted that TDWP, one of the first graduate companies from the TSIC, has decided to locate to the Science Research Park Magee. This highly successful company demonstrates what can happen when outstanding entrepreneurs are provided with a supportive innovation environment."
He said that the success of TDWP would be an inspiration for other entrepreneurs and technology-based start-up companies and that clustering companies such as TDWP on the University of Ulster Science Research Parks would provide significant opportunities for job and wealth creation.
In January TDWP announced a major new contract worth £250,000 with NEC Computers International, a Netherlands based company and subsidiary of NEC Corporation in Japan.
