New York-Berlin-Boston

Greeting Tobias Weber

Let’s build back better, US President Joe Biden inspiringly stated in the light of the global COVID-19 pandemic. And indeed, the goal of the virtual visit of our Berlin business delegation to the US East Coast is not only to bring business decision-makers closer together but to inspire a synergetic dialogue on the fundamental challenges and opportunities our cities, societies and economies address to pave the way for a more resilient Post-COVID era driven by more sustainable growth strategies.

Tobias Weber, Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Berlin (IHK)

“Now more than ever making a positive impact on both local and international challenges ahead of us should be our guideline and motivation.''

With regard to growing cities, digital transformation in full swing and healthcare systems under severe pressure, Berlin, New York and Boston face similar challenges. Our Berlin entrepreneurs from the areas of urban infrastructure, digital industries and healthcare stand for a wealth of expertise and innovative products. Following years of intensifying business relations between our cities our cooperation can now be further deepened in a forward-looking manner.

We aim to strengthen the partnership with our US partners, joining forces to take forward sustainable city development, new digital industries and innovative healthcare solutions. Now more than ever making a positive impact on both local and international challenges ahead of us should be our guideline and motivation.
