Athens
Our Athens office serves as a sales and support centre for Greece. Employees are focused on working with local PC manufacturers, our distributors and the software industry. Our operations in Greece are part of our Europe - Middle East - Africa Sales and Marketing organization.

Athens is essentially a village that outgrew itself, spreading outward from the original settlement at the foot of the Acropolis. Back in 1834, when it became the capital of modern Greece, the city had a population of fewer than 10,000. Now it houses more than a third of the entire Greek population- totaling more than 4.3 million residents. A modern concrete city has engulfed the old village and now sprawls out covering almost all the surrounding plain from the sea to the encircling mountains.
