What is the campaign intended for?
With the location campaign “Sure! Go for it”, we want to showcase our Chamber of Industry and Commerce district, Osnabrück – Emsland – Grafschaft Bentheim. The aim is to highlight what makes this region special – namely a genuine ‘can-do mentality’, whether among the people or the companies. We want to show that our region is equally attractive to skilled workers, companies, investors and start-ups.
