The iPhone manufacturer announced this on Wednesday, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heise.de\/news\/Apple-WWDC-2026-Keynote-mit-KI-Fokus-am-8-Juni-11298043.html?from-en=1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">just a few days before the WWDC developer conference<\/a>. The new center, which is primarily intended for further training for app developers and personal support, complements the existing locations at the company&#8217;s headquarters in Cupertino (USA), Bengaluru (India), Shanghai (China), and Singapore.<\/p>\n<p>At the new location, developers will have access to tools, workshops, and personal support from Apple. The in-person offering complements Apple&#8217;s online services for developers. Regular in-person events are intended to help developers improve their skills and optimize the design, quality, and performance of their apps for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS, and watchOS. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heise.de\/news\/Apple-baut-in-Deutschland-aus-Mehr-Mitarbeiter-fuer-die-Hauptstadt-gesucht-10626859.html?from-en=1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Apple has recently strengthened its activities in Berlin in other areas as well<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The center should reflect diversity<\/p>\n<p>Apple announced that the center is intended to reflect the diversity and creativity of the European developer community. \u201cEurope is home to an exceptional developer community that builds apps, creating connections, fostering creativity, and driving innovation,\u201d says Susan Prescott, Vice President of Worldwide Developer Relations at Apple. However, for Apple, Europe is also a special market, as particularly strong regulation by the EU Commission applies here, which also affects the App Store. For example, Apple has to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heise.de\/news\/Datenschutz-und-Innovation-gefaehrdet-Apples-Regulierungschef-von-EU-genervt-11280553.html?from-en=1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">allow alternative app stores due to the Digital Markets Act (DMA)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Apple&#8217;s app awards, such as the App Store Award and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heise.de\/news\/Apple-Design-Awards-Zwei-App-Store-Oscars-fuer-Deutschland-und-Oesterreich-10425701.html?from-en=1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Design Award<\/a>, show anew each year the high importance of European developers for the offering in the App Store.
