The 50,000sq ft site is based on a similar format of the Northern Ireland Science Park in Belfast's Titanic Quarter.
8Over8, which develops risk management software, will be used by companies in the oil, gas and mining industries to manage large infrastructure projects.
The firm also has offices in North America, Europe, Australia and the Middle East, but chief executive Clare Colhoun said the core of its team would be in Derry.

"With an ever increasing international demand for our software, our business plan calls for more than 20 additional hires across the company this year, and ten of these are expected to be in Derry."
