Minister hopeful that LG will open R&D center in Poland

This could stem from the opening of production plants for plasma television sets, fridges and washing machines. This would be LG's second R&D center in Poland, as currently it operates one in Mława, which employs 50 people. "The scale of investments of the LG group in Poland large enough to lead the concern to think of such a center," said Deputy Economy Minister Andrzej Kaczmarek. He was trying to convince the Korean company to make this move during his trip to Korea last week. "We are optimistic as representatives of LG have already met with Wrocław Technical University and both parties agreed that over 100 engineers, who will graduate, will begin training in LG at the end of the academic year," said Paweł Panczyj from Wrocław Mayor's office.
