The foundation stone of a Science Park, valued at some HUF 4bn, was laid ceremonially at the Debrecen production site of National Instruments (NI) Hungary Ltd on 1 October.
As NI Hungary CEO László Ábrahám said, the company received funding of some 2 billion forints for the implementation of the 6000sqm Science Park project by winning a New Széchenyi Plan tender. At the facility, 300 people – mainly research and development professional engineers – will be employed, he added.
Minister of State for Employment Sándor Czomba of the Ministry for National Economy called it a sign of confidence in the future that the Texas-based company, which in 2001 established its first overseas factory in Debrecen, is about to embark again on a development project in Hungary.
