Siemens invests in China

October 26, 2002

As part of the acceleration of its mobile communication activities in Asia, Siemens is continuing its focus on China as the largest market in the Asia-Pacific region and plans to spend USD 49 million this fiscal year developing a Chinese next-generation mobile standard.

In mobile network infrastructure, Siemens mobile continues to favor both the Chinese TD-SCDMA standard as well as UMTS. The investment volume, he added, now ranges well into the hundreds of millions of euros.

"Siemens Mobile Acceleration," whose mission is to foster startups with innovative mobile business ideas, has a team of employees who are on the constant lookout for startups with compelling applications for next generation mobile networks and mobile devices. "Every day, we receive good ideas for broadening our mobile communication business. People in Asia are open-minded to new technologies. What we find here are well-trained employees who can support us in achieving our objectives. That's why we're putting our confidence in this market," said . Lothar Pauly, Board Member of the Information and Communication Mobile Group (Siemens).

In addition to Europe, UMTS test networks are also up and running in China, Taiwan, Malaysia and Singapore. "In Europe, we built the first fully functional UMTS networks in England and Monaco. And we'll soon have similar successes to report with TD-SCDMA networks," explained Pauly. Siemens mobile is developing the 3G standard together with the China Academy of Telecommunications Technologies (CATT). Following a number of successful tests in which voice and data were transferred error-free, it is now anticipated that the Chinese government will reach a decision on authorizing this standard. "In China, TD-SCDMA is every bit as important to us as UMTS. We will continue to pursue this development and will be sustaining our investments to the tune of more than EUR 50 million during the current year. The total investment volume ranges well into the hundreds of millions of euros," Pauly said.
