By continuously developing and cultivating our connections, we can offer you a first-class network with contacts to political institutions, science and the media in Bavaria, Berlin and Brussels.

Access to Government, Science and the Media

Alongside our networks in industry and science, we maintain valuable connections to politicians and the media. Our members benefit from the direct access our network provides to all important government agencies, institutions
and authorities — in Bavaria, Germany and in the EU.

Sister Organizations and National Associations

Our close association with the Bavarian Industry Association (vbw — Vereinigung der bayerischen Wirtschaft e. V.) ensures direct connections to other Bavarian employers’ associations and, at national level, to the Federation of German Industries — Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie (BDI),  to the Confederation of German Employers’ Associations — Bundesvereinigung der Deutschen Arbeitgeberverbände (BDA), and other member associations.

Partnerships, Cooperations and Subsidiaries

We are continuously extending our reach, which enables us to implement projects and initiatives efficiently through partnerships and cooperations. The advantage for you: you profit from a service spectrum that is being constantly extended and tailored to your needs.
