SN Systems Dublin office
Sony's dev tools offshoot expands into Ireland.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Bristol, 2nd September, 2008 – SN Systems, a subsidiary of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI), are pleased to announce the opening of a new satellite office in Dublin, Ireland. Based in the centre of the city, the new Dublin office will be lead by Matt Bush, an SN Systems veteran with nine years' experience working on all PlayStation® platforms. The main focus of the office will be research and development for the ProDG development tools, the standard programming tools for all PlayStation hardware.
Andy Beveridge, SN Systems Director added “As part of the on-going development process we’re finding that in order to recruit the most talented staff, we need to have offices in numerous locations. Last year we opened our first US office in San Jose, California and this year it’s Dublin. Both offices will grow in numbers quite rapidly as we plan to recruit more staff to cope with the demand of supporting PlayStation game title developers worldwide. However, the Bristol office will still be our Headquarters and main focal point. To accommodate our growth, we’ll be moving to a larger office later this year”.
The new Dublin office reflects the overall expansion of SN Systems and will result in the creation of a number of new positions within the company.
