The region remains strong, but also vulnerable - Structural Report Stuttgart Region 2023 examines the resilience of the regional economy.
After the years of the Corona pandemic, with declines in economic performance in many sectors, the Stuttgart Region is currently showing signs of a clear recovery. However, new crises have emerged, such as the war in Ukraine with its (not only) global economic consequences or the increasingly clear climate changes, which also require action in the region. At the same time, digitization is advancing and the transformation of the powertrain and mobility is leaving its mark far beyond the automotive industry.
In addition to analyses of the structure and dynamics of the regional economy, the structural report also takes an in-depth look at various "resilience factors" (e.g., labor and training market, innovation, commercial space). These factors can present themselves as opportunities or risks for the regional economy.
Based on the presentation of five focus areas of the regional economy - the automotive and production technology clusters, the IT economy, the healthcare industry and the skilled trades industry - further strengths, weaknesses and challenges for the regional economy are identified and analyzed.
