This strategic decision will provide our employees with incredible career opportunities while continuing to support our clients with technology insights and ideas to better their personal and professional experiences.”
The acquisition of CPU further enhances Compugen’s expanded portfolio, particularly in areas such as Service Desk, Infrastructure, Security, and Cloud.
