Take-off in aviation
Aviation is our development laboratory. Under the umbrella of Hamburg Aviation, we have developed and tested innovative formats with partners such as Airbus, Lufthansa Technik, HECAS, Hanse Aerospace, educational institutions and numerous small and medium-sized enterprises in the aviation supply industry.

Our sphere of activity:
Hamburg and the metropolitan region
Our work is rooted in the region – in Hamburg and the surrounding districts of the metropolitan area. This is where we live and work. This is where we know the people, the structures and the issues that matter. This is where we bring together those who want to achieve more together.
Hamburg is our centre of activity: a city with innovative strength, international appeal and a diverse educational and economic ecosystem.
