Saxony
Saxony is an excellent location for international companies and has developed rapidly in the last couple of years. This may be due to its attractive position between Western and Eastern Europe, as well as to its population’s affinity with all matters technical: Saxony boasts the highest number of students who graduate with degrees in engineering, manufacturing and construction each year.
