Telvista, Inc., a global company specializing in customer service contact centers and technical support, will invest $1.1 million in technology upgrades to expand staffing at its Danville facility. The company will hire an additional 250 team members, expanding from 500 to 750 team members by the end of 2006.

With U.S. headquarters in Dallas, Telvista provides contact center services and related professional services at facilities throughout the United States and Mexico.

“Danville has a great pool of friendly, smart, and dependable people who provide superior service to our clients,” says David Allen, Chief Operating Officer for Telvista. “This level of service has impressed our clients and enabled our Danville team to grow faster than expected. Danville’s community leaders have also provided tremendous support and a business-friendly environment during this year of rapid growth.”

The Virginia Economic Development Partnership worked with the City of Danville to secure the project for Virginia. The Virginia Department of Business Assistance will also support the project with training assistance through its Workforce Services Jobs Investment Program.
