In the Ruhr region, 160,000 people employed in sectors such as energy, water, and resource management are working on innovative solutions for a sustainable, green future with significant economic potential. It is the strongest region for the environmental economy in North Rhine-Westphalia.

The large number of universities, colleges, and research institutions, coupled with systematic support for start-ups through incubators, innovation centers, and funding programs, creates a dynamic market with good opportunities for companies and skilled workers.

With the Greentech.Ruhr business and research network, the regional economic development agency Business Metropole Ruhr supports companies in a variety of ways to gain a foothold in the Ruhr region.

The two companies Okeanos Smart Data Solutions (development and implementation of AI-based software for the water and environmental management sector) and atech innovations (filtration with ceramic membranes and corresponding pressure housings) report on the region from their perspective.
