HD Hyundai and Siemens Digital Industries Software inaugurated a joint center in Busan on Tuesday, marking the beginning of their collaboration to expedite digital transformation within the shipbuilding sector. HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering, the intermediate shipbuilding entity of HD Hyundai, hosted the opening ceremony for the Global Marine Center, with company executives including CEO Kim Hyung-kwan and Siemens Digital Industries Software Chief Revenue Officer Robert Jones in attendance.
The center will accommodate around 50 personnel from both firms, who will concentrate on ship design, production, artificial intelligence (AI) systems, and product lifecycle management. This facility aims to blend HD Hyundai's shipbuilding acumen with Siemens' cutting-edge digital engineering technology. In July, the two corporations signed a pact to collaborate on a next-generation marine platform, a project that seeks to interlink every facet of shipbuilding, ranging from design and production to supply chain management, quality assurance, and upkeep, through the utilization of AI and digital innovation.
