10 Successful foreign investments in Scandinavia
11 In August 2010, the Chinese automotive company Geely Automobile completed its purchase of the Swedish car manufacturer Volvo Automobile Company. Since the acquisition, Geely has decided to establish an important Research and Development Centre in Gothenburg, Sweden. The Centre employs approximately 200 full-time engineers from Sweden and China. Geely has in total managed to create 1,500 new jobs in Sweden whilst raising employee satisfaction to its highest rating in 10 years. Geely has also managed to increase Volvo s revenue, much thanks to the largely increased market share in China. The Swedish Finance minister, Anders Borg has stated that GEELY s investment in Volvo could be rated as a model of the business cooperation between Sweden and China, which has gained credit for China.
12 In 2012, the American IT-company Intel opened two new Research & Development-sites in Finland with the aim to provide more advanced platform solutions, focusing on mobile hardware platforms and software solutions. After choosing Finland, Intel hailed Finland s engineering talent and the trendsetting Finnish customers in their demands for new technology solutions. We selected Finland for recent R&D investment because of the good availability of talented software developers and hardware engineers as well as the high levels of safety, stability, education and research here, - Brian Quinn, Director Business Strategy, Intel Labs Europe
13 SAAB + NEVS a Swedish/Chinese/Japanese collaboration In 2012, the well-known Swedish car manufacturer Saab Automobile filed for bankruptcy. National Electric Vehicle Sweden AB (NEVS) acquired the main assets of the Saab Automobile bankruptcy estates for development and manufacturing of electric vehicles. NEVS is owned by the National Modern Energy Holdings Ltd. (NME Holdings Ltd.), operated from Hong Kong. The research, development and manufacturing of the eletric vehicles are now a unification of Swedish know-how in manufacturing and design and Japanese advanced technology. The company operates a plant in Trollhättan, Sweden. This is also the main hub of Nevs, including head office, research and development as well as manufacturing. Beijing National Battery Technology, a Chinese sister company of Nevs, also operates a manufacturing plant for electric vehicle batteries in Beijing. Research and development is conducted by Swedish, Japanese, and Chinese engineers.
