IBM To Set Up Software Lab In Rehovot
IBM Corp. is expanding its research activity in Israel. The company announced that it was setting up a third software laboratory locally.
The new laboratory will consolidate three software development groups operating in Rehovot and Jerusalem, which are run by teams of companies IBM acquired in recent years.
IBM’s R&D activity in Israel is one of the longest standing in the country. IBM’s Haifa research center was established over 30 years ago and is one of the company’s largest centers outside the US. The IBM Israel Research Lab has over 400 employees. The second development laboratory, which focuses on semiconductors, is located in Ramat Hahayal, Tel Aviv, and Haifa.
The new laboratory, based in Rehovot and Jerusalem, will bring the total number of IBM research and development staff in Israel to 650 employees.
