==History==
The company was founded in 1995 as Worksoft and started its long-term relationship with IBM. The company added an office in Dalian in 2004, and in that same year signed a contract with Unicom-BREW and built the PeopleSoft China Development Center. In the next year important achievements included the building of the TIBCO China Development Center and selection as a Microsoft Preferred Vendor and built its China Offshore Development Centers in Shanghai and Beijing. In that year, the company expanded by acquiring SureKAM and the US-based Siebel consultancy Envisys, and secured financing from funding by Hao Chen, Legend Capital and Rob Theis, Doll Capital Management (DCM). More venture capital funding following in 2006 from Kui Zhou and Doug Leone of Sequoia Capital. The company also in 2006 acquired China-based Prosoft Technology. 2007 was a marquee year in which the company changed its name to VanceInfo and listed on the NYSE, and opened offices in the US in Seattle, Washington and New York. Further international expansion occurred in 2009 with the opening of a London office and a Melbourne, Australia office in 2010.
The company emerged in the backdrop of partisan political bickering in the US state of Ohio in 2010-2011. A group of state representatives allied with Service Employees International Union District 199, a branch of a major trade union, pointed out that Mark Kvamme, a political appointee put in charge of creating jobs in Ohio, was a partner in Sequoia Capital, which had invested in VanceInfo. The state representatives and union branded Kvamme as unfit for the role of creating jobs in the state since he was tied to VanceInfo, an outsourcing company, through his stake in Sequoia Capital. One of the representatives said: "It seems utterly contradictory that a guy who's the state's leading job creator, supposedly, is trying to bring jobs to the state of Ohio ... while in his private life is benefitting from outsourcing IT jobs to China."〔"(JobsOhio may give Kvamme new role in Kasich administration )," Columbus Dispatch, 6/22/2011〕
