Powerhouse Eastern Germany

"Over the past few years Eastern Germany has become one of the most competitive places for investment in Europe. Situated in the heart of Europe, this business location offers excellent conditions for businesses to invest and benefit from the development of a dynamic region. The main advantages of the region include the state-of-the-art research and development landscape, modern logistics and communication networks, a highly qualified and flexible workforce and access to the dynamic markets of eastern Europe and the major western European economies.
These assets helped boost competitive industries throughout Eastern Germany, such as in the renewable energies sector, the chemical industry, the car industry and mechanical engineering. Many international businesses have made use of the growth and development potential of these sectors. The solar energy sector, for example, has attracted many international businesses operating successfully in Eastern Germany.
The Federal Government actively supports investments in Eastern Germany. We wish to offer optimum conditions to international investors. In my capacity as the Federal Government Commissioner for the New Federal Länder, I am personally dedicated to helping international investors in eastern Germany.

I will do everything in my power to ensure that Eastern Germany is the best place for your investment."
