Support developer PTW has opened a new studio in Charleston, South Carolina.
PTW Charleston will be led by Bernhard Rieder as studio head, reporting to VP of operations Sebastien Bisch for the Americas.
This is PTW’s fourth North American studio. The company said it will enhance Charleston’s tech ecosystem and talent pool to create local jobs in the city. The new studio will also feature “state-of-the-art” facilities for next-gen testing.
A growing tech hub
“To better serve our US-based partners, we understand the significance and importance of having a domestic QA solution; the synergies are invaluable,” said Bisch. “Charleston stood out as the ideal location – it’s a growing tech hub with the perfect blend of proximity and highly skilled talent.”
“PTW is excited to create a centre of excellence for the industry within the vibrant Charleston community, and we look forward to building a new flagship studio in the US.”
PTW recently acquired Ghostpunch Games for $13 million; however, earlier this year, it also suffered layoffs when it let over 40 staff members go.
