Kongsberg Automotive opens new tech center in Sweden

The new EUR 3.2 million building includes 4'500 square meters of office and engineering space for persons from all business areas and consolidates Driveline’s R&D efforts in one facility. The center has an office capacity for 180-190 people, and 165 people have already started working in the center. “I’m proud to be part of creating the future together with my KA colleagues, and I personally have the greatest hopes and belief in the future for Kongsberg Automotive. Our new technical center will project confidence, and be a real engine for growth. It will be a natural place for cross-fertilizing of competence and electronic know-how between our different business areas,” said Joachim Magnusson, EVP for Kongsberg Automotive’s Driveline business. The center gathers all R&D, purchasing, engineering, program, sales and global manufacturing engineering in one building.
