Greetings from the Mayor of Berlin, Mrs. Franziska Giffey
Ni hao (你好) from Berlin,
It is my greatest pleasure to welcome you to Berlin – one of the world’s most vibrant and innovative business hubs.
Since 2016, the economy in Berlin has been growing with a pace well above the national average in Germany. Products „Made in Berlin“ from big international players such as Bayer, BMW and Siemens as well as from hidden champions such as Green Wind Group, Micro Resist Technology and BoS&S Software are well established in the global market. Especially the ICT (fintech, enterprise software, food, transportation etc.), e-mobility and green tech clusters have been growth motors in recent years.
Berlin is the start-up capital of Germany. In 2023, 19% of all start-ups in Germany were founded in Berlin. Every third financing round in Germany (851) takes place in Berlin (286) and almost 40% of the venture capital is being invested into start-ups from Berlin. 25 unicorns originate from our city. The online fashion retailer Zalando, founded in Berlin, is listed on the German DAX stock market index since 2021.
Tesla, Amazon, Google and the battery producer Microvast continue to invest in the Berlin metropolitan region. They choose Berlin for its leading science and tech environment, highly skilled talents, and Germany’s highest density of universities and research centers.
The German capital with its focus on innovation and diversity warmly welcomes our partners from China. Together we can create the products of tomorrow and work alongside on the digital and ecological transformation for a sustainable economy.
Our office in Beijing (Berlin Business Desk China) supports your company with market information and finding suitable business partners in Berlin. We are looking forward to assist you with any questions you may have.
