Daimler Trucks & Buses gets new technology hub in Lisbon
The hub will hire 30 people and address current and future challenges in the transformation of the CV industry.
A new technology hub was created for Daimler Trucks & Buses to increase its tech expertise and to facilitate and support global initiatives within the Daimler group. The ‘Tech & Data’ hub will address current and future challenges in the transformation of the commercial vehicle industry, e.g. the adoption of electric fleets, the future of logistics and infrastructure integration (V2X).
In the ramp-up phase, the Tech & Data Hub will hire around 30 people, with a strong focus on tech talents from different areas. Focusing on new technologies and digital services in the commercial vehicle sector. The Tech & Data Hub will build strong collaborations with the Daimler Group’s global brands, global external partners, cities, startups and tech communities to build a global ecosystem around commercial vehicle mobility.
Having a strong focus on open source and tech communities, the Tech & Data Hub aims to position itself as the preferred partner for internal and external collaboration, as well as a recognised technology partner, to become the global leader in the transformation of this industry.
The commitment of the local university network to establish majors in new technologies such as Data Science, AI and Machine Learning, as well as a very active and open community of people from various technological, industrial and cultural backgrounds, were essential factors when choosing Lisbon as the new location of the hub. Equally important and attractive for Daimler is the strong commitment and support of the City of Lisbon to work together on future oriented topics, such as Urban Mobility, Future of Transport and Logistics, and more.
