NUM AG, the international company with headquarters in Teufen (Switzerland), has opened a branch in Bangalore, which is the capital of India’s southern Karnataka state.
Rajesh Nath, managing director of NUM India (

"We have been well represented in China and Taiwan for many years, and we would now like to further strengthen our position in Asia.
This latest expansion secures jobs world-wide, as well as creating new employment opportunities in India.”
Mr Nath and NUM CEO Peter von Rüti set up the branch in a modern office complex in the south of Bangalore.
Mr von Rüti said: “By opening a branch in India, we are exploiting our growth potential.
"At the same time, the Indian team is expanding our expertise in sales, service and after-sales support.
"NUM believes that Bangalore, as a high-tech location, will strongly influence the CNC market in the future and thus significantly promote the development potential for CNC systems.”
With the new office in Bangalore, NUM is now represented internationally at 12 locations.
