ULM, GERMANY – Zuken has expanded its sales and training facilities here to meet demand for its electrical and wire harness design software.

The new facility in the center of Ulm has convenient access to transport and accommodation, and supplements Zuken’s R&D Centre on the outskirts of the city.

The facility will provide a training hub for the company's customers in Germany, Zuken added.

"The increase in demand for E3.series training has required us to expand. The new Sales and Training Center increases our capacity and gives us room to expand the development team in our Ulm R&D Center," said Gerhard Lipski, general manager, Zuken Europe.

Growth in Germany is part of Zuken’s ongoing expansion across Europe and the United States. Last year Zuken established joint venture with Bremen, Germany-based Contact Software to provide engineering process and data management software. Their first product, E3.EDM, was launched last December. Zuken also opened a subsidiary in Poland and increased its presence in Switzerland. In the US, Zuken announced plans for significant expansion and investment with the opening of a new R&D center in Silicon Valley.
