Synopsys Hosts Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Marking Expansion of Team in Belfast

BELFAST, Ireland, Sept. 13, 2018 — (PRNewswire) —   Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today will host a ribbon cutting ceremony from 12:00 to 14:00 BST to commemorate the opening of a new facility and the expansion of the team in Belfast, which supports the advancements of Black Duck by Synopsys. The event will bring together members of the Synopsys Software Integrity Group leadership team, Invest Northern Ireland leadership, and the media to celebrate continued expansion in Northern Ireland – a testament to the growing industry need for open source security research and vulnerability analysis.

"As our team continues to expand in Northern Ireland, so too does our strategic vision," said Christopher Fearon, head of the Black Duck by Synopsys Open Source Security Research Group. "The team's innovation and research efforts continue to provide valuable industry insights. More importantly, in coordination with the broader research and development efforts within the Synopsys Software Integrity Group, we're driving positive change in the industry as we consistently and relentlessly work to improve the global state of software security."

Invest Northern Ireland CEO Alastair Hamilton will be in attendance to show continued support for the Synopsys Belfast expansion efforts and economic developments within the region.

Belfast is home to the Black Duck by Synopsys Center for Open Source Research & Innovation (COSRI). Through cutting-edge research, innovation, information, and education, COSRI works closely with the open source community to ensure a vibrant and secure open source ecosystem.
