The Medical Valley Center Forchheim offers high-growth companies in the medical technology and healthcare industry attractive office space in one of the economically strongest and scientifically most active medical technology clusters worldwide - the Medical Valley European Metropolitan Region Nuremberg (EMN).
Medical technology metropolis: Forchheim in the focus of the industry
The medical technology sector is the most important production branch in the city of Forchheim.
With around 3,900 employees in the medical technology sector, Forchheim is at the top of the employment-intensive urban and rural districts in Bavaria. Measured in terms of jobs (absolute and relative), the business location of Forchheim is thus the largest and most important production location in the medical technology sector in Bavaria and thus has a unique economic position in Bavarian medical technology production.
In Forchheim, Siemens Healthineers AG manufactures computer tomographs and state-of-the-art angiography systems. In addition, the Healthcare IT division of Siemens Healthineers AG has been successively expanded in Forchheim in recent years.
The medical technology network: Forchheim as a hub for innovation
Over the years, highly specialised suppliers and service providers have also settled in Forchheim, such as the logistics companies Simon Hegele Gesellschaft für Logistik und Service mbH and Hans Geis GmbH + Co KG. Other potential partners in medical technology are the companies Assdev GmbH, Enertex Bayern GmbH, Gebr. Waasner Elektrotechnische Fabrik GmbH, Heinrich Ziegler GmbH, Loparex Germany GmbH & Co.

The Medical Valley Center Forchheim is located right in front of the Siemens Healthineers factory sector and within walking distance of all relevant suppliers and service providers.
Cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems and with the nearby hospital ensures market-oriented development in the early phases of the innovation process.
