Baden-Württemberg and the United Kingdom look back on many years of close and fruitful economic cooperation. In order to remain viable in the long term and to be able to address the current challenges in the area of sustainability, strong networks, partnerships and relationships are indispensable. Innovation comes from diversity, from strong cross-sector and cross-national partnerships. Therefore, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Tourism Baden-Württemberg and the British Department for International Trade launched the Economic Partnership Initiative in early 2020. In this framework, the study "Stronger together: Successful Business Relationships between Baden-Württemberg and the United Kingdom” impressively showed that the creative industries in particular offer enormous potential for future trade relations at the interface with all economic sectors.

Join us to get inspired by opportunities and solutions in the field of creative sustainability. Look forward to short presentations from 6 inspiring companies from Baden-Württemberg and the UK, and get connected!
