Tenth Saxony-Anhalt "Investors Stammtisch" at Burg Wanzleben

November 28, 2006
The periodic gathering of representatives of U.S. subsidiary companies based in Saxony-Anhalt and the neighboring states of Saxony and Thuringia hosted by hit-music broadcaster Radio SAW, featured Consul General Mark Scheland and the Commercial Counselor from the Canadian Embassy, Christopher McLean, among the guest speakers. Mark Scheland briefed the audience on globalization trends and their consequences, as well as on tasks of the U.S. Commercial Service in Germany. About 80 businesspeople and politicians – among them Saxony-Anhalt’s Economic Minister Dr. Rainer Haseloff and Transport and Construction Minister Dr. Karl-Heinz Daehre - also addressed the group. The U.S.-"Investorenstammtisch" was established by Radio SAW in 1999 to create a discussion forum between U.S. investors and politicians in Saxony-Anhalt.
