Description
Docler Holding is a multinational enterprise in the fields of entertainment, technology, personal development and luxury/lifestyle, headquartered in Luxembourg, with more than 1,000 employees worldwide. The company announced that it had relocated the main engineering and commercial development activities to Luxembourg from Italy after acquiring the Italian start-up Streamago (specialised in social networks). Actually the relocation took place in early 2017, but Docler Holding did not want to communicate with Streamago before a thoroughly review of their technology support has taken place. Now that the acquisition is done, the company is proud to announce that the relocation of activities of this start-up in Luxembourg has created 20 jobs. Most of them are developers and salespeople. 'We have started to integrate our state-of-the-art streaming technology and Streamago application expertise"'said the CEO and co-founder of Docler Holding, 'This allows us to create new business models based on the technology we have been developing for over 17 years.'
