Eastern countries woo investors at Munich real estate fair

Municipalities and companies from Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia want to attract investors with a joint stand at the Expo Real real estate trade fair in Munich. From October 6 to 8, 27 exhibitors will be presenting themselves there, as announced by the Central German Metropolitan Region.

This phase in particular demonstrates the strength of eastern Germany, said Managing Director Jörn-Heinrich Tobaben. "Our region offers stable or moderately growing prices in many areas, good framework conditions for major investments and a cooperative network of business, science and local authorities." The aim is to make these advantages visible and to establish contacts.

The City of Leipzig intends to promote the Airport Industrial Park at the Leipzig/Halle hub at the trade fair, among other things. "Leipzig's growth must continue to be shaped in order to find the right balance between affordable housing, open space and jobs," said Building Mayor Thomas Dienberg. Despite the tight budget situation, Leipzig is sticking to its course of creating space for major investments.

In addition to Leipzig, Halle, Magdeburg, Jena, Dessau-Roßlau and Gera as well as several companies from the region will be represented at the stand. Expo Real is considered the largest trade fair for real estate and investment in Europe.
