EGC – Our Services
The implementation of a project idea takes time, effort and energy. The EGC Wirtschaftsförderung Cottbus’s Company Service provides support in the search for a suitable plot or industrial property for rent or purchase from the start. Depending on the requirements regarding the space or property as well as the price, EGC compiles the key data for the business site, prepares specific proposals and liaises with contact partners for financing and funding options.
Businesses and fresh entrepreneurs starting from scratch are supported by EGC throughout on their way to independence and successful development. EGC points out the relevant authorities, chambers, associations, and finance providers and supports those interested in its sites from the first inquiry to conclusion of the authorisation processes.
In the implementation phase, too, EGC Wirtschaftsförderung Cottbus supports investors, businesses and entrepreneurs, including ensuring the skilled labour supply and recruitment. EGC moreover promotes exchange and technology transfer between the involved parties, enables access to research and development results and their transfer into the economy.

Business Succession
Many businesses face the challenge of business succession and it often can prove difficult to find suitable successors to take over one’s life’s work. The protection of jobs and the successful continuation of the business are of huge importance for our regional economic structure and therefore the key motivation for EGC Wirtschaftsförderung Cottbus in addressing this topic.

International Partnerships and ‘Looking Eastward’
EGC Wirtschaftsförderung Cottbus is a reliable partner for international cooperations and partnerships. The EGC team includes staff from the Russian-speaking region and other European countries who facilitate the development of international business contacts.
We were warmly welcomed by EGC and well advised, built trust. The hard site factors are equally a match. We were able to rent good premises in a central location and with the fibre optic cable we have overall a better infrastructure than in Munich.
