About Us
The Welcome Center Erzgebirge is the first port of call for Erzgebirge companies and people moving to the region from Germany and abroad who wish to live and work here.
We act as your guide and have all the right contacts to help new Erzgebirgers get settled and make their home here. We put you in touch with the key departments and work closely with our partners to provide personal support and provide tailor-made solutions for you.
The Welcome Center Erzgebirge welcomes qualified professionals. We promote an open and welcoming culture in the Erzgebirge, to ensure that new arrivals feel at home.
The Welcome Center is a free service provided by Wirtschaftsförderung Erzgebirge GmbH and is based in the Technologieorientiertes Gründer- und Dienstleistungszentrum Annaberg, which is a services centre for technology-based start-ups.
