Metova, Inc., an emerging technology company creating world-class apps, is opening new offices in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Company officials said the firm is expanding from its base in Franklin, Tennessee, and Conway, Arkansas, to Northwest Arkansas, with a new office in Fayetteville to meet the demands of the rapidly growing mobile and digital media industry.

"We are excited to announce Metova's newest office expansion in Fayetteville immediately creating 30 new jobs primarily in application programming and development," said John Adams, CEO of Metova, Inc. "Northwest Arkansas is an ideal location for our latest expansion, where there is a great pool of talent, higher education opportunities, and a thriving business environment."

"Wow! The fact that Metova is significantly expanding for the third time is a testament to the state's growing reputation as a hub for tech companies," said Governor Asa Hutchinson. "Through increased STEM education and our new computer coding initiative, we are preparing a workforce that will be a great fit for Metova. The company has already announced more than 160 new jobs in Conway in 2015 and now brings 30 additional jobs to northwest Arkansas. We appreciate Metova's ongoing commitment to doing business in Arkansas."
