Regional office Central and West Brandenburg

The region around the Regional office Central and West Brandenburg covers the districts of Dahme-Spreewald, Teltow-Fläming, Potsdam-Mittelmark as well as the independent towns of Potsdam and Brandenburg an der Havel. The region is therby a centrepiece of the Brandenburg economy. The European motorway axis E 30 (A 2 and A 10) crosses the region and connects it with the industrial regions of Western Europe and the emerging markets of Central and Eastern Europe. Well-known, international industrial and logistics companies, technology centres, business parks and scientific and research facilities are dotted along this business axis like a pearl chain. The future Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) is directly connected via this axis.

World-famous companies such as Rolls-Royce, MTU, Mercedes-Benz, ZF, eBay, Oracle, VW (design centre and logistics centre), Katjes, Fiege or the famous Potsdam-Babelsberg film studios are just some examples. Investments pay off in the region.

The region offers a number of economic powerhouses:
- The economic region of Westbrandenburg for industrial companies, in particular metal industry, rail technology and optics
- the attractive and thriving freight center for logistics companies, with the municipality of Grossbeeren;
- Three prominent healthcare/life science parks (Biotech Campus Potsdam-Hermannswerder, Luckenwalde Biotechnology Park and Potsdam-Golm Science Park) for biotechnology companies;
- The town of Baruth for the wood industry;
- The film and television district of Babelsberg for media companies;
as well as a whole host of business parks and industrial estates in an ideal location, partly directly next to the motorway.

With the state capital Potsdam, the towns of Brandenburg an der Havel, Ludwigsfelde and Luckenwalde, the region comprises five regional growth areas (Brandenburg a.d.H., Potsdam, Ludwigsfelde, Luckenwalde and Schönefelder Kreuz) offering particularly attractive funding opportunities.
