Cluj IT
Cluj IT is a cluster organization, based in Cluj-Napoca, a city located in the historical region of Transylvania and acknowledged as a significant IT center from Romania. The cluster is formed of active organizations in the information technology field: providers of software services and solutions, universities and research institutes, public bodies and other catalyst organizations.
Founded in October 2012, Cluj IT is an innovation based value chain network of Romanian IT companies and related organizations with the purpose of increasing the competitiveness and growth of IT services and products on international markets and of creating a strong sustainable public – private partnership in order to improve the life quality of the community we are part of. For this, we created an ecosystem suitable for the development and manufacture of innovative software services and products, with high value added, through: close collaboration between the cluster’s members, exchange of knowledge and ideas, public-private partnership and support of research – for the benefit of member organizations and with impact upon the society overall.
