Red Hat Czech s.r.o. is a research and development arm of Red Hat in Brno, Czech Republic. The subsidiary was formed in 2006[2] and has 900 employees.[3]

History

In 2006, Red hat chose to enter the Czech Republic over other locations due to the country's embrace of open-source.[4] It was intended to be a major development center.

The group was named the Most progressive employer of the year in the Czech Republic for 2010.[5] The next year, they were named the Best Employer in the Czech Republic for large scale companies by Aon.[6]

The subsidiary expanded in 2017 to a second location in the Brno Technology Park to accommodate an additional 350 employees.[7]
