Germany/Saxony-Anhalt acknowledged
by the American Chamber
as a top location for US companies in Europe.
The investment location of Saxony-Anhalt was acknowledged through a new poll conducted by AmCham Germany and Boston Consulting: Germany remains the most attractive place for American investors in Europe. In this poll, Germany could clearly extend its lead as the top investment location. With that Germany leads the ranking list of European locations, taking over from Eastern Europe, who had already given up its leading position the previous year.
Within Germany, Saxony-Anhalt is especially popular with American investors: nowhere else in the EU are there more subsidies. The costs are clearly below the German average (e.g. labor cost by about a quarter). Because of the ideal location in the heart of Europe and the excellent infrastructure, Saxony-Anhalt is a preferred location.

| "Why do I read Site Selection?" |
|
|
|

As a dedicated community and economic researcher, it's in my blood to want to compare our metro and state to everywhere else. The well-designed Site Selection rankings frequently validate Greater Des Moines' economic development efforts, at the same time offering that all-important outside opinion of our area's caliber for business and life. But, honestly, who could resist opening a magazine with Bob Gravlee's whimsical Governor's Cup portraits on the cover? They put a smile on my face every bit as big as a good ranking!
