Bombardier Supports the Evolution of Mobility in Asia at SmartRail - Seite 2

The event is also a further milestone in the development of Bombardier's presence in Thailand. Bangkok is the base for Bombardier's Asia Pacific Hub for both its Rolling Stock and Rail Control Solutions Regional Businesses. Its 17-year presence in Bangkok has secured Bombardier as a leader in high-end rail industry work in Thailand with a full commitment to developing local talent. Since 1997, the site has been developed as the Regional Centre for Signalling Engineering and since 2014 as the Asian Centre of Engineering (ACE) for Rolling Stock.

Today the growing base employs a team of over 450 employees, delivering rail projects for Thailand, Asia and worldwide. Its signalling team is the global engineering lead for two major product lines, the CITYFLO 450 and CITYFLO 650 CBTC solutions. The ACE setup is boosting Bombardier's position to capture the growing opportunities in Asia Pacific and is strengthening the foundation for longer-term partnership with customers and business partners in the Region.
