Cloud solutions provider creating approximately 50 new jobs
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Green Cloud Technologies, one of the nation’s fastest-growing providers of hosted solutions and services, today announced the opening of its new Greenville County headquarters. The company’s $7.8 million investment is projected to create approximately 50 new jobs over the next five years.
Green Cloud Technologies was founded in 2011 by a team of industry veterans with more than a century of combined information technology, telecom and communications experience. The start-up was established with a business model focused on building partner networks and providing customers with world-class servers, as well as backup and recovery solutions. The company’s expansive suite of Cisco-powered, cloud-based products, services and support is scalable to applications of any size — from small and medium-sized businesses to enterprise-class organizations.
Previously housed in Greenville’s NEXT Innovation Center, Green Cloud Technologies’ new, 14,470-square-foot headquarters facility is located in the Haywood Ridge Office Park at 510 Airport Road in Greenville, S.C. The new facility offers convenient access to Interstate 385 and the Greenville Downtown Airport.
