Schaffhausen, Switzerland/January XX, 2012— Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN), the global leader in satellite navigation, today announced that in the process of integrating NAVIGON as the company’s European-centric research and development center, NAVIGON GmbH has been renamed to Garmin Wuerzburg GmbH. Furthermore, the current NAVIGON managing director, Egon Minar, handed over his responsibilities to Johannes Angenvoort, who has been responsible for the development of navigation devices and solutions at NAVIGON for 14 years.
„Johannes Angenvoort is a true R&D expert and makes a great leader for our new research and development center in Wuerzburg. I’m convinced that in his new role as managing director, Johannes and his team will help Garmin set new standards in the navigation market,“ said Cliff Pemble, president and COO at Garmin. „I’d also like to thank Egon for his outstanding performance during the transition period, and especially for his efforts in merging the cultures of both companies.“
Garmin acquired NAVIGON on July 26, 2011, to complement and enhance the company’s capabilities as the global leader in the automotive and mobile GPS markets. The new Garmin Wuerzburg office is the realization of the company’s vision to establish a technology and product management center that will help develop and deliver products that cater to European consumers.
Since its inception in 1989, Garmin has delivered 91 million GPS enabled devices – far more than any other navigation provider. Garmin’s market breadth in the GPS industry is second to none, having developed innovative products and established a leadership position in each of the markets it serves, including automotive, aviation, marine, fitness, outdoor recreation, tracking, and wireless applications.
