Berlin and Brandenburg unite to chart a bold economic future at UVB’s 75th anniversary
A rainy November evening in Potsdam set the stage for a high-profile celebration. The Unternehmensverbände Berlin-Brandenburg (UVB) marked its 75th anniversary at the Museum Barberini, surrounded by Impressionist artworks depicting sunlit landscapes. Among the guests were government ministers, lawmakers, church leaders, and union representatives, all gathered to reflect on the region’s economic future.
Three key figures took the stage to address the audience. Berlin’s governing mayor, Kai Wegner, joined Brandenburg’s minister-president, Dr. Dietmar Woidke, alongside Michael Hüther, director of a prominent economic research institute. Their speeches shared a common theme: optimism for the region’s growth.
The anniversary event highlighted the shared goals of Berlin and Brandenburg’s leaders. Their calls for better federal support and regional unity set clear priorities for the coming years. The evening closed with a sense of purpose, as guests left the museum against the backdrop of a rainy German night.
