At the end of June, we officially opened our automotive engineering service centre in Veszprém. The engineering team in Veszprém, in cooperation with the company's R&D centre in Budapest, is already working on development projects for the world's largest automotive manufacturers on almost every continent. The Veszprém centre works in close cooperation with the University of Pannonia and the office is also located on the university campus. The joint work includes supporting educational development activities related to automotive systems, giving lectures, providing internships and collaborating on projects and theses. Thyssenkrupp also provides workplaces for students, where they can participate in actual research and development tasks.
