Kaspersky Lab leads Russian tech invasion of Dublin’s ‘Silicon Docks’

Kaspersky Lab, the global cyber-security firm, is leading an invasion of Dublin by Russian technology companies, start-ups, programmers and developers – many of whom are looking abroad as Russia remains stuck in recession and worries grow over the political and legal environment there.

The Moscow-based company, which is the fourth biggest seller of anti-virus software, is planning to open a “significant” R&D center in Dublin and is already hiring specialists.

Numerous emerging Russia tech companies have left Moscow for foreign shores in the US, Singapore, Dubai and Latvia over the past few years, reports BNE Intellinews.
