We have been negotiating with Volkswagen for two years. We discussed different opportunities for investments. This company may open Research and Development Center in Bulgaria, Bulgaria’s former President Rossen Plevneliev said. The talks are held by the Automotive Cluster Bulgaria, the Bulgarian government and Volkswagen. Bulgaria’s strength lies in the talent of its people and the fact that we already have such successful centers. In the coming weeks, three companies with the size of Bosch, which is already in Bulgaria, will negotiate at the Ministry of Economy to open Research and Development Centers in this country, Rossen Plevneliev said further.
