Location
Location description¹:
The Economic Development Department of the City of Helmstedt is your service provider within the administration that supports you in the establishment and development of your company.
We are the point of contact for public and private investors in the planning and implementation of your projects.
The town of Helmstedt is actively initiating and shaping the structural change – away from lignite mining towards a „green“ business location with some of its own energy generation. Helmstedt was, is and will therefore remain an energy location with prospects.
Enormous potential is available in the short and medium term, particularly through land reactivation. Industry and tourism are becoming „green“ and in the current planning phase are being designed to form a successful unit. The Lappwaldsee planning association and the Buschhaus planning association have begun their work in order to develop Helmstedt and the entire region in a future-proof manner.
As a growth region, Helmstedt links the Hanover-Magdeburg-Berlin conurbations. Short distances along the BAB 2 to all relevant modes of transport as well as the short and medium-term availability of space are currently our most important locational advantage for your projects.
Are you interested in being part of this development? Please get in touch.
