US company opens UK office at Science Park

A Chicago-based company that helps mobile operators resolve problems with their mobile network performance is opening a new office at the Bristol & Bath Science Park.

Velocent has offices in Chicago and will be opening its UK office as a result of its growing UK and European customer-base.

The company works with mobile network providers, such as H3 Group and Si.Mobile to ensure their customers’ experience of mobile broadband data is of a high quality.

Jagadeesh Dantuluri, Vice President of Marketing and Product Line Management at Velocent, comments: “We want to get closer to our UK clients and the Bristol and Bath region was the obvious choice for our new office because it is a hub for highly skilled Software Engineering professionals in the telecoms industry.

Bonnie Dean, chief executive of the Bristol & Bath Science Park, comments: “Velocent’s move to the region is a real testament to its strengths in this sector and its excellent connectivity to the rest of the country.

“There is a vibrant entrepreneurial community at the Science Park, which will provide Velocent with useful and interesting connections.

“This is particularly important for a company that has not worked in the UK before as they will benefit from the support network that the Park offers.”
