Welcome to CHEMICAL CITY
The Ludwigshafen site
Ludwigshafen am Rhein is a world famous
chemical cluster offering outstanding services in industrial production and
research. The chemical industry has a long tradition in Ludwigshafen and is welcome at this
location.

chem2biz initiative to further expand and strengthen the cluster. Beyond the
startup and growth phase, the Ludwigshafen site also offers
attractive possibilities and areas for companies to relocate and settle. W.E.G.
WirtschaftsEntwicklungsGesellschaft mbH, in its role as a municipal economic development
facility, offers consulting services, real estate and rental properties in

Metropolitan Region
Rhine-Neckar
chem2biz and the Ludwigshafen chemical cluster are part
of the European metropolitan region Rhine-Neckar. This region aims at becoming
one of the most attractive and competitive regions in Europe by 2015 and is positioning
itself as a unique trio of a highly innovative economy, excellent science and
the highest quality of life. Since April 2005, the Rhine-Neckar triangle has
been one of the eleven German metropolitan regions to which the European
Commission ascribes central importance in future economic development. Metropolitan
regions are the engines of society’s social, economic and cultural development.
Since 1995, they have been re-presented at a national level by the MKRO
(Conference of Ministers for Spatial Planning).
