Berlin is a major industrial and service hub and fertile ground for start-ups. Companies from all industries and countries have traditionally located large branches here. After Germany’s Reunification in 1990, Berlin’s economy was restructured and took a new direction – toward a clear focus on knowledge-centric production. Creative and cultural fields, biotech and communications technologies are key economic sectors. Berlin is a world-class city with the fourth largest economy in Europe.

Berlin is one of the world’s top capitals of higher education and home to more than 40 universities and higher education institutions. From the humanities in the tradition of Humboldt to advanced technology projects, Berlin reflects the full spectrum of today’s education landscape.

All parts of Berlin are easily accessible. Commuter rail and subways connect its districts from Charlottenburg to Neukölln and the outskirts are easily and conveniently reachable as well. A quirky detail for fans of statistics: Berlin’s local transportation system circles the earth 8.7 times per day. And, after a very long construction period, the new Berlin airport is ready to welcome visitors from around the world.

The Berliner Philharmonic, the Berliner Ensemble theatre with its strong Brecht tradition and Deutsche Oper Berlin all form part of the city’s rich theatre landscape. The list of the city’s major cultural institutions is long and varied. From the Pergamon Museum and National Gallery to the Egyptian Museum with its famous bust of Nefertiti, from the Reichstag and Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church to Bauhaus architecture – in Berlin, history meets contemporary vision. The country’s momentous recent history is present everywhere – from the Holocaust memorial to the Berlin Wall. Along with Cannes and Venice, the Berlinale is among the world’s major international film festivals. And, of course, Berlin also has spectacular sporting events to offer. The Olympic Stadium in Berlin is the location of many different international sporting events and a huge draw annually for football fans from across the country for the German Cup Final. Berlin, Berlin, we’re going to Berlin!

“Currywurst” (sausage in curry sauce) was invented in Berlin and today – along with the equally ubiquitous doner kebab – is a symbol of uncomplicated everyday cuisine. In Berlin, there’s a fast food shack and doner kebab stand around every corner.  Each year, Berliners consume 400,000 doner kebabs and, believe it or not, 70 million curried sausages. No wonder then that the city even has a currywurst museum! Of course, Berlin is also home to world-class starred restaurants as well as a diverse culinary offering, sometimes specific to certain neighbourhoods, from across the globe. Berlin’s signature drink, the “Berliner Weiße” (sour beer) is the perfect accompaniment for a warm summer night in a beer garden along the Spree River.
