HP says no joint investment with Foxconn in Chongqing

Published: 06 Aug 2009 00:40:03 PST

HONG KONG, Aug 6 - Hewlett-Packard said on Thursday it is not investing jointly with Foxconn International Holdings <2038.HK> to develop a laptop computer manufacturing hub in Chongqing, clarifing a news report earlier this week.

On Wednesday, the South China Morning Post reported that HP and Foxconn would invest $3 billion in the project. [ID:nSP344487]

Instead, an HP spokesperson told Reuters that the company had announced a collaboration with the Chongqing government to create a second global manufacturing hub for notebook PCs. This followed a statement last October that HP would build a different facility in Chongqing to produce notebook and desktop PCs.

HP declined to give further details about the investment.

A Foxconn spokesman declined to comment.
