Intel to develop software for smartphones and smart TVs in Bucharest

American IT giant Intel, with 35 billion-dollar annual revenues, will invest several million euros in opening the research and development centre in Bucharest, which will mainly be involved in developing software for smart mobile phones, TVs and cars.

"The Intel Software research and development centre in Romania will initially hire around 25 professionals specialising in software research and development, with their number to rise three or four-fold over time, as the projects diversify," said company officials. "Intel Romania Software Development Center will focus on developing software solutions necessary for creating the best experience for users on a large range of smart devices based on Intel architecture, including smartphones and other equipment for general use, such as smart TVs and in-vehicle infotainment systems."
