General Motors Investing $1B Into Warren Tech Center, Adding 2,600 Jobs



Renaissance Center Circa May 2009

General Motors announced Thursday it will invest $1 billion into its Warren Tech Center in Warren, Mich., adding 2,600 jobs through 2018.

The investment will see renovations, expansions and new additions to the tech center, with work set to start this month, The Detroit News reports.

Included in the investment are new design studios, an IT building, additional parking and testing facilities, and revamped R&D buildings, as well as “extensive office upgrades” and other interior remodeling through most of the buildings at the center.

The 2,600 new jobs coming into the campus are expected to be salaried positions in engineering, IT and design, though GM didn’t state whether any of the jobs were transfers from other locations, as well as when those jobs would begin appearing.

The announcement follows one made last month involving a $139.5-million investment into the Tech Center’s Pre-Production Operations facility, a part of GM’s overall $5.4-billion investment plan to modernize its plants through 2017.
