The Rhine Region – an overview

The PrimeSite Rhine Region lies in the south-west of North Rhine-Westphalia, one of Europe's most important metropolitan regions. Around 18 million people live here, including nearly 8 million in the Rhine Region alone. The companies have global links and generate an annual gross domestic product of around 240 billion euros.

The region between the Rhine and the Eifel hills is impressive. Excellent transport connections, a high density of research and development facilities, numerous internationally operating companies, and the international trade fairs in Düsseldorf and Cologne make the Rhine Region an attractive business location.

Life and work here are characterized by a cosmopolitan and international mentality, as well as the close proximity to neighboring Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. The Rhine Region combines the vibrant towns and cities of the Rhineland with the restful countryside of the Eifel national park to create an attractive mixture offering an extremely high quality of life.
