LEG Thüringen has landed a major coup with the construction of a battery cell factory by the Chinese investor.
Indeed, this means the go-ahead for one of the most important foreign investment projects in Thuringia in the past ten years. At the same time, it is also a result of our committed work in recent months to assert ourselves in the increasing national and international competition between regions. However, the actual work for a step-by-step implementation has just begun.
Has the business location Thuringia become more interesting for investors in recent years?
Yes, recently the share of foreign investors, especially from the high-tech sectors, that are interested in the Free State has been increasing continuously and now amounts to over 50%. Hence, a peak has been reached; at the same time this proves the increasing appeal of the business and technology location of Thuringia.
Where do you see the reasons for this development of Thuringia as a hot spot for investors?
For one thing, Thuringia has a diversified industrial structure, qualified employees, and renowned higher education and science institutions; it offers high quality of life, in addition to its excellent position in Germany and Europe and state-of-the-art infrastructure. The availability of attractive industrial spaces that meet even the most challenging requirements especially plays a major role.
On the other hand, LEG Thüringen, as a full-service agency, offers compatible services for investors, reaching from economic and sector analyses, tailor-made location offers right up to financing and subsidy packages, public authority liaison and finding cooperation or research and development partners in Thuringia.
