Roche picks Riga for its newest satellite office

24/3/2023
 
Roche, one of the world's largest biotechnology companies, is creating a satellite location for Roche Services & Solutions (RSS) EMEA in Riga, in addition to its existing Pharma and Diagnostics Teams. The Riga office will be part of the Roche Services & Solutions EMEA organization.

"Our new team in Riga will play an important role for us as we continue to broaden our capabilities for RSS in EMEA. We will start recruitment in Q2 2023 and aim to ramp up the operations to more than 200 employees over 4-5 years," said Martin Kikstein Head of Roche Services & Solutions EMEA.

Roche's decision to open an RSS office in Riga, in addition to its existing Pharma and Diagnostics Teams, indicates its commitment to making substantial investments in Latvia.

"The Riga Investment and Tourism Agency has been working with Roche since the company first showed interest in operating in Latvia. The announcement of the opening of the Roche Services & Solutions centre is an acknowledgement of the success of our collaboration!" added Martins Stakis Mayor of Riga.

Roche has an impressive history in Latvia, with the first local company established in the 1920s. Roche later resumed its operations and established its representative office in Riga in 1997 and has since achieved a leading position in the market in Pharma, Diagnostics and Data.
