The Imec research centre in Leuven, Flemish Brabant, is looking to hire 1,950 new employees by 2035, should current growth trends persist, the centre revealed on Thursday.
Imec, which focuses on research into microelectronics and nanotechnologies, currently employs just under 4,000 persons at its Leuven site, out of a total of over 5,500.
Growth prospects include the erection of several new buildings and office spaces, including one expected to be constructed by 2025.
“The development plan represents a maximum scenario, it’s our best estimate, depending on how growth continues,” Imec CEO Luc Van den hove explained.
