Acronis, global leader in cyber protection, opens first office in Romania

Acronis, a global leader in cyber protection, has just opened its first office in Bucharest. With JLL’s support, Acronis rented a workspace in Orhideea Towers, an office building developed by CA Immo in the center-west of Bucharest. JLL represented Acronis during the search process and the negotiation of lease terms.

“Romania remains an attractive destination for IT&C companies that are looking for new markets to expand their operations through. We are in touch with several international players that are looking at Romania as a next step for their expansion, and we are very glad we can offer them buildings like Orhideea Towers which perfectly address their real estate needs,” said Madalina Marinescu, Office Consultant at JLL Romania, who advised Acronis in the transaction.

Acronis is a global company with headquarters in Singapore and Switzerland. Its solutions are trusted by more than 5.5 million home users and 500,000 companies, including 100% of the Fortune 1000, and top-tier professional sports teams. During the last several years, Acronis has been opening offices in new locations and regions to support the global growth and demand for new generation of cyber protection technologies. The new Romanian office will become an important foothold for serving the Romanian market — and the Balkans in general — in the post-Covid era.

“We have successfully opened a new office despite pandemic limitations. Now we are going to expand our operations in the region and leverage new resources for our global growth. Acronis has already provided the market with unique, easy-to-use protection solutions like Acronis Cyber Protect, Acronis Cyber Cloud, and others. And I’m sure that our new team in Romania will help the company in developing new breakthrough technologies and better serving local clients,” said Ivan Doudin, Acronis Regional Director of Sales.

Romania became the second country in which JLL has helped Acronis to expand. Previously, JLL Romania helped the company to rent 1,700 sqm of office space in Sofia. The Bulgarian office has already became one of Acronis’ most important R&D centers. It is expected that new Romanian office will also become a new center for IT expertise and innovation throughout the Balkans.
