Hassleblad Opens a New Design Center in Italy

"We plan to capitalize on having the best of both worlds with this new Italian centre and our traditional Swedish camera manufacturing expertise," says chairman and CEO Dr. Larry Hansen. "The region we have chosen for this new centre of design excellence is home to many high-tech manufacturers, including those working in the watch, high end automobile and aerospace industries."
In this new design center, Hassleblad will be creating a new DSLR, a compact camera and its own line of accessories.
