Mitteldeutsche Flughafen AG (MFAG), Wirtschaftsförderung Sachsen GmbH (WFS) and Investitions- und Marketinggesellschaft Sachsen-Anhalt mbH (IMG) have signed an extensive cooperation agreement in order to strengthen the position of the “Leipzig/Halle Airport Region” in the long term. The aim of the agreement is to market “airea – the Airport Region in Central Germany” as a joint economic area across different federal states and internationally and make even more effective use of its potential to attract investors and enable firms to set up their business here.

Among other things, they are aiming to create a common approach to attracting and supporting investors, setting up and expanding a network of international cooperation partners, marketing industrial areas in close cooperation with the regional development agencies – as well as providing concentrated services in the field of logistics concepts, support for developing the workforce and encouraging companies to come to the region.
