BTU presents Lausitz Science Park at the Real Estate Arena 2025

The Lausitz Science Park (LSP), one of the outstanding structural development projects in the region, is presenting itself for the first time this year under the leadership of BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg at the Real Estate Arena - the leading trade fair for property, project development and Urban Planning in northern Germany. With its presence, the project is emphasising its important role in the transformation of Lusatia into a nationally and internationally significant future location for research, technology and sustainable development.

At the joint stand "Krasse Lausitz - die Chancenregion", organised by the Cottbus Economic Development Agency, the Lausitz Science Park will provide information on current investment opportunities and the planned expansion of the infrastructure for research institutions, high-tech companies and start-ups. The focus will be on the close networking of the Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg (BTU) with partners from business and science, some of whom will also be represented at the joint stand - including the city of Cottbus, Startblock B2 and ASG Spremberg. Together, the partners represent the commercial, industrial, residential, start-up, science and location sectors.

Hotspot for high-tech and sustainable urban development

"Real Estate Hannover offers an ideal platform to present our vision of a pioneering innovation campus and to attract potential partners, investors and project developers to the region," says project manager Dr Markus Schwenke. "We want to show that Lusatia is not only capable of structural change, but is already a hotspot for high-tech and sustainable urban development."

The Lusatia Science Park is being built on an area of 420 hectares in the vicinity of BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg and offers ideal conditions for technology-oriented companies in areas such as energy transition and decarbonisation, AI and digitalisation, global change and transformation processes as well as health and life sciences. With its strategic location and planned excellent research infrastructure, the LSP is one of the most important future projects in the region's structural change process.

Interested visitors can find the Lausitz Science Park from 14 to 15 May 2025 at Real Estate Hannover in Hall 004, Stand A22.
