LitePoint Corporation, a provider of wireless test system solutions, cut the ribbon this morning on its new European office and development laboratory in Alleroed. With the new office, LitePoint will be expanding already existing activities, and hiring more engineers.
"We have made these changes for several reasons. It closes our value-chain loop in Europe bringing support much closer to our European customers, and it puts us in the center of Europe's cellular activities as we gear up to pursue the converged wireless market," Jan Bo Nielsen, managing director of LitePoint Europe said.
"There were essentially two reasons we chose Denmark and Alleroed," Benny Madsen, LitePoint CEO, explained. "They have outstanding engineering talent, here, and we are right next door to Europe's cellular center of gravity."
"I am glad LitePoint is increasing its activities in Denmark as it grows its business in Europe," said Ole Frijs-Madsen, director of Invest in Denmark. "It underlines Denmark's strong wireless-technology competencies, especially in wireless R&D. In addition, it underlines the strong position Denmark has as a hub to European markets."
"I too am pleased that LitePoint has chosen Alleroed for its expanded European presence," Erik Lund, vice mayor of Alleroed, said. "It is good news for engineers, here, and highlights Denmark's contribution to wireless communications and cellular technology."
