The company’s footprint in the UAE is growing
Heléne Bittman has taken from Anna-Karin Rosén, who has played a pivotal role in strengthening Saab UAE’s position and operations since her appointment in 2018.
Previously, Bittman was the Head of Saab AB’s wholly owned production and development facility based in Abu Dhabi’s Tawazun Industrial Park (TIP), where she was responsible for overseeing the company’s operations, setting its strategic direction, as well as growing its market position and product portfolio.
Expansion plans
“We strongly believe that Heléne will accelerate progress of our expansion plans and reinforce our regional footprint,” remarked Carl-Johan Bergholm, head of Saab’s Business Area Surveillance.
“I look forward to deepening our ties with local partners and exploring further opportunities for collaboration, ensuring sustained success and growth of our operations in the country,” commented Bittman.
Saab’s footprint in the UAE is growing, currently comprising more than 150 employees. Saab’s development and production site based in TIP aims to leverage innovation, underpin industry knowledge, as well as nurture strong capabilities and world-class Emirati defence and security solutions, catering to national priorities as well as global needs, a press communique concluded.
