Research and development played a major role in the region well before Braunschweig became Germany's City of Science for a year in 2007. And science has a very long history in the city. TU Braunschweig, for instance, is proud to be the oldest institute of technology in Germany. Over the past decades, both the city and its surrounding area have evolved into a European research hotspot. Science, industry and culture work hand in hand to drive innovation, not least in the sugar sector.
