As a leading financial center, international transporthub, global expo and trading site, and a location for innovation, technology, education, culture and science, Frankfurt am Main and the Greater Frankfurt Area attract businesses of every size and from every sector. This is the home of domestic and international market leaders. From here, many business headquarters tap into new markets and reach their existing customers. Throughout Germany. Throughout Europe. Worldwide.
Many companies in the optics, metal, electrical, pharmaceutical and medical industries have settled in Central Hessen, approx. one hour from Frankfurt Airport. This region stands out thanks to its unique education infrastructure.
In North Hessen, approx. 1.5 hours away from the city of Frankfurt, international investors encounter innovative global market leaders from the mobility, decentralised-energy and health sectors.
