On the occasion of the WFB launch, Andreas Heyer has taken up his new position as Executive Chairman. "We want to pool all the experience of the previous organisations in the new company and support Bremen's development as a successful business, trade fair and event location in a combined effort," as Heyer explains the merger. The WFB embraces the business fields of economic development, location marketing, trade shows and events, and commercial services. In the field of economic development and business promotion, the core concerns of the new entity remain the provision of service to businesses, the promotion of innovation, estate development and engineering, and real estate.
