Chances and Challenges for Hamburg
§  Knowledge-based growth will shape structural change in
Hamburg.
§  Skill-intensive service industries – like architecture and
engineering firms, advertising, media and cultural industry –
and research-intensive industries are expanding.
§  “Dirty” industries vanish from the cityscape.
§  These trends contribute to knowledge-based employment
§  Simultaneously: increasing migration and internationalisation
of the population/labour force.

Chances and Challenges
§  Forecasts:
Hamburg will grow economically and attract population.
§  Hamburg continues to grow, if advantages of regional
closeness compensate potential (increasing) disadvantages of
agglomeration.
§  Reducing the danger of increasing disadvantages of
agglomeration also means tackling challenges of
internationalisation:
§  regarding the whole society
§  regarding the firm level
§  specific challenges for Hamburg as a harbour city

Creating new approaches for urban development?
§  Urban development meets complex and dynamic processes.
§  Innovative concept: Focus on people - but how?
§  Companies do not chose their location mainly according to
traditional location factors (low tax rates, real estate prices)
anymore, but more and more on the criterion of high qualified
people and so-called “soft-factors”.
§  Key-resource: “(international) knowledge“.
§  Is Hamburg well prepared for future trends of
internationalisation of population and the economy?
