Founded in 2018, the Lisbon-based hub has played a critical role in developing connectivity services and software products for global markets across Europe, the US, and Asia. Chief Information Officer Raghavendra Vaidya noted that the shutdown stems from a strategic shift to centralize internal IT operations rather than reflecting on the local team's performance.
