Bosch, the world leader in automotive technology, industrial and consumer products, has finally opened its doors to business in May 2010. The new facility, which cost S$92 million (US$66.33 million), will house its key businesses in Asia, including Corporate Research and Advanced Engineering, Corporate R&D for Information Technology, Automotive Aftermarket and Security Systems.

Not only does the new facility boast a gross floor area of 250,000 square feet, it also features state-of-the-art green technology. Taking into account factors such as sustainability and energy efficiency in its design considerations, the company aims to do its part in environmental conservation, an initiative that is in line with the Singapore government’s efforts in the clean energy sector.

Singapore has always been Bosch's strategic partner in business, with its readily available talents, excellent infrastructure and connectivity with the rest of the region. "The investment in our new regional headquarters shows our continued confidence in Singapore as a strategic location to support the group's business growth here in Southeast Asia and Asia Pacific," said Cem Peksaglam, President and Managing Director, Robert Bosch (SEA) Pte Ltd.
