A new office of Singularity University – with the name of SingularityU Debrecen Chapter – opened in Debrecen on the 29th April to help startups and small businesses – said István Herdon, local representative of the American university founded by NASA and Google.
The main goal of Singularity University, which is based in the Silicon Valley, is to encourage people to be more innovative and more active on the fields of technology and science. Singularity University supports technologies, which make at least a billion people’s lives easier and more comfortable.
According to László Papp, mayor of Debrecen, the foundation of the new office branch in our city is a great chance for Debrecen to become one of the innovational bases of Central Europe. Referring to the huge American influence on Debrecen’s economy, he also announced that the Texas-based Flowserve Corporation had chosen our city as the new location of their financial centre, creating more than 400 new workplaces in Debrecen.
