1 Economic region

Between the metropolis of Berlin and the Polish border lies our dynamic economic region ODERLAND-Spree. Excellently developed and as an established logistics location in the heart of Europe, your company can rely on rail, road, water and air connections. You can reach the European and Asian growth markets at any time. The location is also connected to all relevant industrial as well as commercial clusters of the country and offers an excellent network between companies, science, educational institutions and the business development.

Business location with strong industries

  • Growing mobility industry with highly specialized companies, such as the Tesla Gigafactory in Grünheide (Mark), the largest industrial settlement since 1990
  • Innovative microelectronics long established as a partnership between industry and universities
  • Location of the steel industry with the ArcelorMittal steel plant and numerous metal processing companies and their suppliers
  • Continuously growing building materials industry around the historic site of Rüdersdorf near Berlin
  • Energy supply with renewable energies - guarantees reliability in supplying companies in the future, too
  • Important logistics region for Brandenburg, Berlin, Germany and Europe due to the favorable location between East and West

The whole is more than the sum of its parts. Whether economy, tourism, education or renewable energies. In the ODERLAND-SPREE economic region, three strong partners join forces and stand for cooperation at its very best.
