The Maritime Cluster Northern Germany (MCN) is the industry network for Hamburg, Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein as well as for the associated partners Bremen and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania with the core competencies of innovation, promotion and internationalisation. WTSH GmbH applies for the continuation of the regional office in Schleswig-Holstein in order to continue to ensure on-site supervision by maritime cluster management for the companies and scientific institutions. The central task is to strengthen regional competences, initiate cooperation projects even across national borders and expand existing networks. One of the overarching objectives is the promotion of the maritime economy and the existing value chains in northern Germany and in particular in Schleswig-Holstein.
