Future Hamburg - innovations in Hamburg and the Hamburg Metropolitan Region is an initiative that provides information on pioneering, innovative projects in the City of Hamburg and beyond. Exciting technologies and topical issues will inspire you, and perhaps you will find projects, people or places here that can help you and your business move forward.
Hamburg is one of the most liveable cities in Europe and a magnet for companies, investors, startups and talent, making it the perfect place to put ideas into practice.
Cities play a crucial role in tackling some of the biggest challenges of our time. Here in Hamburg, we like to address questions of the future with a view to making our approaches a model for other large cities to follow.
Science, research and business are closely interlinked in Hamburg in order to secure Hamburg's future viability in the long term.
We love researching and experimenting. We have this passion to thank for such indispensable inventions as the chip card, the sticking plaster and the satnav. We are building on this tradition for the future. Today, as the second largest city in the world's fourth largest economy, Hamburg is a driver of innovation and an urban test laboratory for futuristic projects and is one of the Top business locations worldwide.
As a particularly green metropolis with Germany's largest seaport, Hamburg is a logistics hub and the economic heart of Northern Europe, soon to be even more closely linked to its Scandinavian neighbours thanks to the Fehmarnbelt link. We - that's 5.4 million inhabitants of the Hamburg metropolitan region in Germany.
Future Hamburg was launched by Hamburg Marketing GmbH and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hamburg Invest.
The aim is to create new connections through targeted, cross-border communication and to highlight the Hamburg Metropolitan Region's attractiveness in Germany and abroad, thereby adding value and quality of life in the City of Hamburg and beyond.
