EchoStar Europe expanded east in the summer of 2007 with the opening of a new engineering centre in Kharkov, Ukraine. The Kharkov region is renowned for its strong science and technology background. Based on this and EchoStar’s very real need for more talented engineers, combining the two seemed the perfect fit.

Although starting with a relatively small team, EchoStar Ukraine is very important in helping to better support the company’s growing European business. Demand for EchoStar’s cost effective and reliable products keeps on rising. So in order to keep customers happy, expansion of the well established European engineering groups was required.

Naturally, finding more like minded individuals who are able to complement the existing engineering teams is of paramount importance. With 1000 square metres of office space, EchoStar Ukraine has room to flourish and grow into the future.
