Why Munich

Munich has the strongest economic power of all the German cities – the metropolitan region’s gross domestic product is just under EUR 300 billion. 8 of the 30 largest German Blue Chip companies are based in Bavaria, including global players like Allianz, BMW, Siemens, Infineon and Linde. Besides major corporations though, there are also many hidden champions as well as innovative start-ups who have their head office or branch offices in Munich. Thanks to this variety of different companies and sectors, the Bavarian regional capital has been able to establish itself as a flagship location for new business fields, such as digitalization and cross-industry innovations. There are a growing and thriving start-up community, especially in the B2B space, that benefits from and further strengthens the Munich and Bavaria technology base. This also has attracted a fair number of venture capitalists to Munich, complemented by a host of business angels.
