Compagnie des Machines Bull SA is reactivating and strengthening its long-standing ties with Videoton of Hungary. For a decade and more, Videoton manufactured the Mitra minicomputer for sale in the Comecon countries, under licence from Compagnie Internationale pour L’Informatique SA, one of the constituent companies of Bull. Now Bull plans a joint venture in Hungary, majority-owned by Videoton. No product details have been given, but Videoton is seeking transfer of management and distribution skills.
