Economic Development Council of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region

Perfectly networked in northern Germany

Cooperation between economic development organizations in northern Germany has a long tradition.

In order to coordinate the joint activities of each individual economic development agency in the Hamburg Metropolitan Region, particularly in cluster management and location marketing, they came together in 2006 to form the Economic Development Council of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region.

The council currently includes a representative from the economic development agencies of the districts and independent cities of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region as well as a representative each from the state of Lower Saxony, Wirtschaftsförderung und Technologietransfer Schleswig-Holstein GmbH (WTSH), Invest in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Hamburg Invest and Süderelbe AG.
