Business Development Corporation, City of Chemnitz
The Smart Systems Campus Technopark Chemnitz, an innovative network with expertise in
micro and nano technologies as well as in smart systems integration is being created at
Chemnitz, one of the German microsystems and nano technology centres, especially for firms
that value direct access to famous scientific institutes and leading international companies.
A network of microsystems expertise will have been set up at the Smart Systems Campus in
Chemnitz by the beginning of 2009. Young, rapidly growing start-up companies and renowned
international corporations will set up new facilities right next to Chemnitz University of

development and the industrial implementation of ideas by having everything on the doorstep.
