Aerospace in Berlin-Brandenburg

Berlin-Brandenburg is on its way to becoming the third most important location for the German aerospace industry. Over 18,000 people work at the three Berlin Airports. The region is home to Deutsche Lufthansa AG, MTU Aero Engines GmbH, Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd. & Co. KG, and roughly 60 medium-sized companies in the sector. When it comes to education, there are 15 technical colleges and institutes focusing on areas that are relevant to the aerospace industry.

The heart of the Berlin-Brandenburg aerospace region will be the new Berlin Brandenburg Airport, in southeast Berlin. A large number of firms in the sector are settling in the area around Schoenefeld – and new companies and jobs are helping to boost the region's economy. In the region surrounding the German capital, aerospace has become a key industry with outstanding prospects.
