Yesterday (11) the company announced it bought Argentine software development startup, Lagash.

And that’s because with the move, over 350 of Lagash’s employees distributed among five Latin American countries will now join Mercado Libre.

Founded in 2001, the software development startup from Buenos Aires is no spring chicken.

During this time Mercado Libre had previously hired Lagash to develop projects on its behalf.

Up until this acquisition, Lagash had staff working in its native Argentina as well as Mexico, Chile, Uruguay, and Colombia. | To read full story, visit https://startuparound.com/read/1584039617.216734/Mercado-Libre-goes-shopping,-buys-software-startup-Lagash?ref=audio_experience
