"Hamburg favours innovation, growth and sustainable economic development," said Rolf Strittmatter, Managing Director of Hamburg Marketing GmbH. "The HamburgAmbassadors play a key role in spreading this message and positioning Hamburg as a dynamic business location." All the latest projects and collaborations including the new Food Cluster Hamburg which connects companies, startups and science and positions Hamburg as an important European food hub will be presented. BLUU Seafood, a pioneer in cell-based fish production, will present innovative technologies for sustainable nutrition. The agenda also features a visit to Ohly GmbH, a supplier of fermentation-based food ingredients.

Two new HamburgAmbassadors, who are based in Italy and Ghana, will also attend the meeting. Paul Nemitz from Rome, most recently Principal Advisor in the European Commission's Directorate-General for Justice and Consumers, focuses on digitalisation, fundamental rights and European partnerships. Carsten Düwer, Managing Director of C. Woermann Ghana in Accra, a long-established trading company in West Africa, will input his  experience in foreign trade and market development to strengthen bilateral relations in the region. "As a 'gateway to the world', Hamburg has maintained good relations with all continentsfor centuries," said Peter Tschentscher, Mayor of Hamburg.
