Stuttgart

"Joining Forces" - true to the motto of the Stuttgart Region, our involvement in European affairs is well networked. The Stuttgart Region was the first region in Germany to set up its own representative office in Brussels, which it has held continuously since 2002. The office is located in Baden-Württemberg's representative office. This makes it possible to be part of a network and to gain fast access to information relating to research, innovation policy, energy, transport, the environment, media and the creative industries, all of which are relevant for what is one of Europe's most innovative regions.
