@warwickuni #bosch #engineering #ukmfg Bosch is to open the first permanent base for its motor-sport business at the University of Warwick Science Park in Coventry.
The Bosch Warwick Technology Centre will provide engineering support and services for its UK customers. The German-based company has chosen the 5,600ft
2 Viscount Building and will base about 30 automotive engineers there.
David Grindrod, interim director of the Science Park, said: “Bosch is a world-renowned name, and the fact it felt its needs were met here at the science park, I think says a great deal.
"The founding vision of the park was to ensure there was a link between the commercial and the academic, so that the research undertaken here could help drive industry forward.”
Bosch, which has been involved in motor racing since 1901, services all types of racing — from club to GP. The group also has a base at the MIRA technology park, near Nuneaton.
