This year, Hamburg Invest is highlighting innovation parks in Hamburg. "They are the places of talent in future, startups and technology-orientated companies," said Rolf Strittmatter, Managing Director of Hamburg Invest. The Altona Innovation Park, for instance, as part of Science City Hamburg Bahrenfeld, offers space for forward-looking industries such as the life sciences. One of the stand's main partners, HafenCity Hamburg GmbH, will showcase all its latest development projects e.g., those in Grasbrook, Billebogen and Science City Hamburg Bahrenfeld. "Emphasis is on areas that open up new opportunities for living, working and leisure including the planned sports and events stadium in the Neuer Huckepackbahnhof in Billebogen," said Andreas Kleinau, CEO of HafenCity Hamburg GmbH.
Around 55 Hamburg-based companies will be presented at a joint Hanseatic stand during the Expo Real in Munich (October 6-8, 2025). Premium partners include HafenCity Hamburg GmbH, Hamburg Invest and Fox Real Estate. The exhibitors include Aug.Prien Immobilien, the Hamburg Port Authority and HHLA Immobilien. Two Hamburg-based startups, VisioPlan and Trassets, will also be presenting their portfolios.

"We are looking for committed operators who want to work with us and shape the future of the hotel and catering industry on Neuwerk," said Dressel. The City of Hamburg offers attractive framework conditions for entrepreneurial commitment.
House buidling progressing in Hamburg
Expo Real should prove a genuine source of inspiration for the construction and property industry in 2025, said Pein. "We in Hamburg are focusing on cost-efficient construction, optimised planning processes, faster approval procedures and targeted funding especially in social housing construction to tackle all the latest issues." Clearly, building "residential homes is making tangible progress in Hamburg despite the challenging conditions", she pointed out.
