Contacts for decision makers

People like to talk about vitamin B when it comes to achieving your own goals through good relationships. In fact, good connections to decision-makers and supporters can be decisive for the success of investments, projects and plans of all kinds. We don't want you to have to search far. This page provides you with the most important contacts at a glance. In the district of Görlitz, the business development agencies of the district and the municipalities are the most competent contacts for local economic commitment.  

The two offices of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce, the Görlitz district handicraft association, the Wirtschaftsjunioren, the Bautzen employment agency and the Görlitz district job center are also important partners in the regional economy. Projects to secure and recruit skilled workers are funded by the regional skilled workers alliance of the district of Görlitz with an annual budget. Applications can be submitted at the beginning of each year. The district's specialist coordinator is available to support potential applicants.
