Asia Tech Wire (Oct 18) -- U.S. software development company SolarWinds plans to open an office in Saudi Arabia next year, according to Bloomberg.

SolarWinds plans to open an office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, next year as the company's business in the Middle East grows rapidly, Chief Executive Officer Sudhakar Ramakrishna said Thursday.

SolarWinds has seen double-digit sales growth in the region every year since opening an office in Dubai in 2022, Ramakrishna said in an interview.

The company is also considering moving its EMEA headquarters from Cork, Ireland, to Dubai, he said.
