Where is DipTrace HQ?

[ChrisKiwi]

Hi, Was interested to know where DipTrace is actually based, couldn't find the information on their website.  I have the 500 pin student version.  I sent them an email from my university email account to ask what info they would require for me to prove I was a student and they responded a couple of hours later with the key!  I actually missed the email coming in because I thought it would take a day or so.   I'm guessing they are in central Europe because I received their reply at 7:50 PM NZDT which would be about 9 AM in Eastern Europe.  Of course they may be USA based and just open 24 hours a day.  Cheers, Chris

They are based in Dnepropetrovsk in the Ukraine.
Coincidentally, the Ukraine is where many of the Altium programmers are now based.

Thanks for that very interesting comment, keep up the good work Dave !
P.S. yes, central Europe was a typo, I did mean Eastern

That's because altium and many software/hardware development environments are pirated there

It's actually because you can't get any good and cheap and loyal programmers in China, as they ultimately found out 
If they are cheap, they aren't any good.
If they are good, they don't work cheap and don't stick around.

Many companies are based here because of high-skilled and cheap workers. In Dnepropetrovsk there are SolidWorks and MS development offices, also many big game, niche software, outsource, web-development companies (with US headquarters or as partnerships with local owners). Maybe a half or 1/3 of Dnepropetrovsk's young men are IT guys

Wow!
Just a heads up, fair chance you might have Nick Martin knocking on your door soon!

Why would the Assistant National Secretary of the Australian Labor Party be visiting Diptrace 
OK, must be another Nick Martin ....

If my memory serves me well, Nick was the CEO of Altium.
