Prime Minister Ana Brnabic, President of the Republic Aleksandar Vucic and Minister of Economy Andjelka Atanskovic attended today in Novi Sad the opening of the Continental Automotive Serbia factory, which will employ more than 500 workers.

Representatives of Continental introduced the guests to the production programme, explaining that not only instrument panels and displays for cars will be made there, but also smart control systems.

After visiting the factory, Vucic said that this is a great day and that it showed how much Novi Sad, Vojvodina and the whole of Serbia had progressed in the last three years.

He expressed gratitude to everyone who participated in the project, to the representatives of Continental for the decision to invest in Serbia, but also to domestic engineers, who were able to show our intelligence in the best light and hard work.

Vucic pointed out that the Development and Research Centre in Novi Sad is the third centre of the Continental in terms of the number of people, behind Germany and Romania, and already ahead of Austria and France.

The new factory of the company Continental is part of the business unit Human Machine Interface (HMI) whose focus is on products in the interior of the vehicle, and the value of the investment is €140 million.

The company has been operating in Novi Sad for a full three years within its research and development centre.

To date, this firm has employed more than 600 IT engineers, who are part of an international technology development team, numbering a total of 5,000 professionals.
