Computacenter CEO opens US office

Launch comes a year after plans to establish direct presence in the US were first announced

Computacenter CEO Mike Norris this afternoon posted the above picture as he and Computacenter Americas president Mike Keogh opened the firm's first US office.

The services and reseller juggernaut first announced plans to begin a direct, rather than partner-based operation, in the region last March. It previously relied on US counterpart ComputCom Systems to fulfil its US business.

At the time, Norris told CRN the plan is to build a workforce of over 1,000 staff in the country over the next few years.
