CO₂ fleet threshold values, regulations on batteries and waste batteries, circular economy and sustainability as well as digitalisation and cyber security: the automotive industry in Baden-Württemberg is decisively influenced by the regulations drawn up in the European Union. This is precisely where a central support task of the state agency e-mobil BW comes in. The aim is to increase the international visibility of Baden-Württemberg's automotive sector and to support the initiation of cooperation with European partners. To this end, e-mobil BW organises delegation trips for companies, universities and research institutions, initiates international cooperation projects and participates in trade fairs and cooperation exchanges in Germany and abroad.
