Karma Automotive has opened a business and technology development office in Silicon Valley in support of its emergence as a high-tech incubator.
Located in San Jose, Karma Silicon Valley will initially house a small team of engineers and business strategists tasked with growing partnerships, which will support and shorten the company’s product development process.
“Karma serves as a technology incubator,” said Karma CEO Lance Zhou. “We are opening our product platform to serve as a test bed to help potential business partners bring emerging innovation to market and increase the speed of our own product development.”
“As a young and growing company, Karma is not shackled by legacy costs or bureaucratically weighed down by how things have been done in the past.
“Karma’s strength comes from our entrepreneurial spirit and willingness to collaborate and drive technology solutions forward through design, technology and importantly, the personalised relationships Karma has with its partners.”
The new office will be led by Karma VP Business Development and Strategy, Lewis Liu.
