The unique airport location „airea - The Airport Region in Central Germany“ forms the core of an ever-growing cluster in the heart of Germany – in Central Germany.

This is much more than a geographical description. It is an economic region with great potential, for not only companies, but also people and thus, the Mitteldeutsche Flughafen AG (MFAG), the Wirtschaftsförderung Sachsen GmbH (WFS) and the Investment and Marketing Corporation Saxony-Anhalt (IMG) jointly promote it.

The airport location attracts new minds and ideas to the region, business enterprises and people, across both, sectors and national borders. It is one of the economic powerhouses in Central Germany – for Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt and far beyond. The airport location is a guarantee of a modern and efficient gateway for goods traffic and passenger transport from and to the expanding markets in Western and Eastern Europe, Asia and Northern America. The airport's greater area offers highly attractive commercial sites for various businesses – ranging from e-commerce via production to warehousing. 

In addition to an excellent connectivity to the rail- and motorway network, the region stands out due to a skilled work force as well as a huge space- and investment potential. Apart from the core sectors automotive, logistics and chemistry, the region also offers fruitful connecting factors: starting from e-mobility and hydrogen through biotechnology and pharma to renewable energies. Many leading companies and renowned global players have settled here, including DHL, Porsche, BMW, Linde, VNG as well as Zeiss, Amazon, Dell and Future Electronics
