GM China

Links between Chinese and Western manufacturers are increasing, given the stagnating European and US markets. Looking overseas is not so strange, even when talking about important sectors such as technology research and development.

In this light, the Detroit company has decided to invest its R&D in China. General Motors has announced its opening of a new research centre in China, with plenty of solemn ceremony to mark the occasion.

The complex will be in Pudong, in the urban region of Shanghai, and will cost around 2.5 million dollars for the automobile group. Once it runs at full capacity, the facilities will employ around 2,500 employees, 300 of whom will be researchers.
