Apple will set up two new research and development centres in Shanghai and Suzhou in China
Apple wants to open its own stores in India but has been asked by the government to locally source at least some of the components, as part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's bid to boost manufacturing in the country.
Apple will set up two new research and development centres in Shanghai and Suzhou in China, it said in a statement in its Chinese website on Friday.
Apple said it is adding the two new locations after the two previously announced centres in Beijing and Shenzhen.
It has pledged to invest more than 3.5 billion yuan ($508 million) in research and development in China. The four centres are expected to open later this year, it said.
