Lithuania’s Business Services Report 2023

I believe that the resilience our GBS & ICT sector has shown in the last few turbulent years is a product of who we are. Our people are multilingual, educated, and motivated, while our infrastructure provides the right conditions for growth. And that’s why we see the annual expansion of the sector, both quantitatively and qualitatively. Every year, the number of GBS centers is growing in tandem with the level of sophistication of the functions they provide. It is true that there will be no shortage of challenges for Lithuania and Europe as a whole in 2023. However, we will do everything to ensure that Lithuania’s GBS & ICT community continues to expand. We will work to build opportunities to co-create value and growth for foreign investors across the globe.

When it came to establishing an Advanced Technology center, Vilnius was a natural choice. After all, Accenture has real synergy with the city’s dedication to growing strength and numbers in the IT talent pool. Companies operating in the market need to contribute more to the ecosystem than they take from it, and by working together with local institutions we’ll be able to create the kind of talent Accenture and the industry needs.

Located in the heart of Europe, Kaunas gives us amazing access to our clients. But it's the talent that’s key. That’s what’s ensured that Festo Lithuania has become the home of all our value-creation processes: IT, Engineering, SSC Sales, SSC Finance and Business Assistance Services. Our operation is so dynamic now it’s attracting talent from Germany, Switzerland, Italy and Egypt to Kaunas.
