Hikvision has planned to establish an R&D Centre in Montreal, Canada and a Research Institute in Silicon Valley, California, USA.
“These two major investments underscore Hikvision’s R&D globalization strategy and the commitment to providing innovative, cutting-edge technology products tailored to the needs of our worldwide partners and customers,” said Yangzhong Hu, CEO, Hikvision.
Expected to open in 2017, the Montreal Hikvision R&D Centre will focus on engineering development. The Silicon Valley Hikvision Research Institute will focus on broad technology research.
Montreal is an ideal location for the new R&D Centre because of its excellent talent pool and business-friendly environment. Likewise, the high-tech hub of Silicon Valley is the logical location for the Hikvision Research Institute.
