British, tech-based insights and data firm Delineate is moving its headquarters to Ceredigion, on the west coast of Wales, and says it will build its team there to some 50 employees.
Delineate provides live, actionable brand and campaign tracking data based on access to consumers in over 130 countries, delivering real time survey data via tools including dashboards and APIs. Four years ago the company announced the opening of an Operations Centre in Newcastle Emlyn, also in West Wales, to house development operations, production and IT teams as well as finance and marketing personnel.
The latest move is endorsed by the government of Wales, has been announced during Wales tech Week and according to the company is 'in part due to the rollout of superfast broadband in the area'. CEO and founder James 'JT' Turner (pictured) says of the move: 'Having fallen in love with rural Wales over 25 years ago, when looking to put down roots and grow our business Ceredigion was a natural choice. We didn't get here on our own - our work with partners like Business Wales and Ceredigion Council has been crucial. If we can help others in the tech ecosystem take steps towards similar success of their own, I'd be delighted'. He adds: 'I can't wait to show people what's next for Delineate and its people in this beautiful part of the world'.
Wales' Minister for the Economy, Vaughan Gething, said: 'It is great to see global companies such as Delineate taking a Wales First approach and providing high value and skilled employment in West Wales. The investment that the team are making will not only be good news for the region but for the Welsh economy more widely, and for our growing tech industry'.
Such initiatives will encourage young and ambitious people to stay in the region. Steffan Evans, Production Director at Delineate, comments: 'Delineate has given me the chance to build a successful career in the area I've always called home. Our clients are based all over the world and I love that I can represent West Wales in what I do, while working for a company revolutionising a traditional industry with a brand new technological approach'.
