“I couldn’t be more excited for everything our Munich engineering teams will discover — from exploring the new frontiers of 5G technology, to a new generation of technologies that bring power, speed, and connectivity to the world,” says Tim Cook, “Munich has been a home to Apple for four decades and we’re grateful to this community and to Germany for being a part of our journey.”


Apple employs 4,000 people in Germany including 1,500 engineers in Munich.
