Business
Transatlantic trade and economic exchange between Hamburg and Chicago.
Economic Exchange
Hamburg and Chicago are currently seeking to expand their city partnership with a formal agreement on economic exchange. Once market sectors of mutual interest have been identified, the cities will organise forums and trade missions as part of the process toward signing a formal expanded partnership agreement.
Within this framework, the BEST Center could become a hub for networking and exchange – bringing together companies, institutions and talent from both regions.

The other pillars
Business, Entrepreneurship, Science and Technology – four fields, one programme.
Entrepreneurship
Founding spirit, start-ups and the culture of trying things out.
Science
Research between Hamburg and the United States, from DESY to Science City.
Technology
Digital innovation and the universities that carry it in Hamburg.
Join the transatlantic network
Support economic exchange between Germany and the USA – as a member of the Amerikazentrum.
