Sustainability is one of the Baden-Württemberg State Government’s

guiding principles. It has set itself the goal of making Baden-

Württemberg a pioneer of modern and sustainable mobility for the

future. Our state plays a leading role in relation to the energy transition

and climate action.

Nonetheless, it is well worth looking to see what other countries

are doing. For example, Norway: Norway is a leader in the development

of electromobility, the organisation and control of transport and the

production of energy from renewable sources.

Norway has grabbed the headlines with its plans for emission-free

car traffic by 2025, diesel bans and the congestion charge it introduced

decades ago. In the field of energy, a state-owned corporation is a

world leader in hydropower and Europe’s biggest producer of renewable

energy. Norway is also an important supplier to Germany of natural gas.

The UN ranks Norway number one on the Human Development Index.

The country is also well known for its high standards in the fields of

democracy and social systems.

There are many reasons for an economic delegation to travel to Oslo

and the County of Akershus. Two interesting and varied subprogrammes

on “electromobility” and “energy” have been prepared by bw-i, the State

Agency for Electric Mobility and Fuel Cell Technology and the two

participating ministries.

The visit will include discussions with the Oslo City Council, company

visits to Elhub, Hafslund Nett, Statnett and Statkraft, a meeting with

representatives of the Norwegian Electric Vehicle Association, a visit to

Smart City Bærum and to a research institution.

The journey is an excellent opportunity to learn from ideas in Norway,

to make contacts and lay the basis for future cooperation.

Baden-Württemberg – The German Southwest: Where ideas work.

Baden-Württemberg is one of the most important economic centres in

Europe, having become one of the leading investment locations on

the continent. Bordering on France, Austria and Switzerland, Baden-

Württemberg is situated right at the heart of Europe. Moreover, its

outstanding infrastructure makes it an ideal gateway to the markets of the

European Union – the world’s economically strongest single market with

around 500 million consumers.

In addition to internationally renowned global players such as Daimler,

Bosch, SAP, GFT Technologies and Porsche, it is mainly small and

medium-sized enterprises that form the backbone of our economy. In

2015, the gross domestic product generated by Baden-Württemberg

companies amounted to 460 billion euros, higher than Belgium,

Sweden or Austria. What’s more, our federal state is the EU’s top region

for innovation. When it comes to its research expenditure, amounting to

4.8 per cent of GDP (2013), Baden-Württemberg also occupies a leading

position in Europe. The innovativeness of business and industry is

supplemented by a dense network of universities, research institutions

and transfer agencies. Many leading German institutions such as the

Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft or the Max-Planck-Gesellschaft have substantially

more facilities in Baden-Württemberg than in any other state in Germany.

The economic structure of our state is a mixed one. One important main-stay is the mobility sector. Apart from the automotive and aerospace industries, sustainable mobility concepts such as electro-mobility are playing an increasingly important role. Another key sector is mechanical engineering. Every third machine made in Germany originates from Baden-Württemberg. Successful companies such as Festo, Trumpf, Voith and many others were started and have flourished here. Large corpora-tions such as SAP, IBM and Hewlett Packard represent the third main economic segment: information and communication technologies. For the health care sector, the fourth key industry, the conditions in our state are particularly auspicious. Globally important companies such as Aesculap, Paul Hartmann and Karl Storz are at home in Baden-Württemberg.

Environment technology and renewables are our drivers of future economic growth, whereby a quarter of all German environment-specific goods and services are accounted for by enterprises from Baden-Württemberg.

Over 4,000 foreign companies have already decided in favour of Baden-Württemberg. Anyone who invests in the state as a location for their company automatically profits from a growing pool of potential industrial customers, from the highly developed parts-supplier structure, from cooperation with companies that are related or in the same sector, but above all from the know-how and skills of our highly qualified workers. Our state is international, cosmopolitan and tolerant. People from 188 different countries contribute to our innovativeness and cultural charm.

For all questions relating to Baden-Württemberg as a location for science and industry, Baden-Württemberg International (bw-i) is your first point of contact. Go to www.bw-invest.de to find details of the opportunities for cooperation and investment that abound in Baden-Württemberg!
