Tesonet, a cyber security solutions company, will lease premises at the former Sparta factory in Švitrigailos Street, Vilnius. The company will lease an area of 15,000 m². The office is expected to house 1,500 employees. So far, this is the biggest office lease deal in the current year.
Tesonet is also investing approx EUR 50 million in the new technology campus by acquiring a 45% stake in VK investicija, which indirectly controls the buildings in the area of the former Sparta factory. The buildings are planned to be transformed into a Baltic IT centre.
Seeking to unite the IT community
