Germany’s Machinery and Equipment (M&E) industry stands as a global powerhouse renowned for its excellence in quality, innovation, and efficiency. This sector, the second largest and most innovative in Germany, plays a pivotal role in the country’s economy, contributing nearly 7% to the GDP and employing around 5% of the total workforce. The industry’s success is underpinned by Germany’s rich engineering heritage, its leadership in technology development, and a diverse industrial landscape.
