Avast closes R&D center in Israel, 120 laid off
In July, Avast, a cybersecurity company, acquired its competitor AVG for $1.3 billion. Following the acquisition, Avast is closing the development center in Tel Aviv, which was part of AVGs operations. The closure will result in the layoff of approximately 118 employees in three phases, with the final 70 employees working until June 30, 2017, to transfer knowledge to Avasts development centers in the Czech Republic and Germany. The layoffs are part of Avasts strategy to integrate and streamline operations, given the overlap between Avast and AVGs products. The move is aimed at enhancing Avasts mobile protection capabilities, leveraging AVGs user base of 160 million mobile users.
