"Given its low cost of living, high quality of life, excellent transportation infrastructure and its geographic location, Malaga offers a wealth of opportunities for the further economic development of Jelastic."
Jelastic has planned the following activities/projects in Malaga:

* Continue to develop and grow a successful upcoming partnership with 2 hosting providers in the region
* Announce new partnerships with local Spanish hosting providers
* Gain new private and public cloud clients in the region
* Liaise with local government to grow their network with new contacts and mutually beneficial opportunities
The Invest in Andalucia team and the Malaga Open for Business team, collaborated with Jelastic from the beginning of their expansion project in Europe. They provided data, information, advice and key contacts for the decision on where to set up their new European headquarters.
"We are proud that Jelastic decided to join the ICT business community in Malaga," said sources of Invest in Andalucia-Spain.
