The company has initially established a presence for itself in China by opening an office with local sales and development experts, with staff numbers expected to grow. "We believe that our office in Shanghai will give us an important location advantage by allowing us to quickly build on our contacts with automakers and bring highly skilled workers on board over the coming years," said Thorsten Thomassen.

ACPS Automotive in China will operate under the company name "ORIS Automotive Systems (Shanghai) Ltd.". With China being at the forefront of e-mobility, the company considers it an important driving force for its European business. ACPS Automotive's decision to expand into China is a strategic move with respect to development in Europe. "We're now the market leader in Europe, where we work with virtually all automobile manufacturers. China is an enormous market with high technological standards and impressive speed of innovation. We expect the insights gained there to provide important momentum for our global activities," said Caspar Baumhauer in summary.
