Future of Lusatia: Award conference in Cottbus with 700 million euros

A lot is happening in Lusatia - with investments worth billions that are significantly boosting the local economic area, there are numerous exciting projects in the starting blocks. An important event that is intended to bring entrepreneurs and decision-makers together is the award conference, which will take place on November 13, 2025 in Cottbus and the Spree-Neiße district. The event has the motto “Great Cinema” and will take place from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the traditional Weltspiegel Cottbus. The EGC development company Cottbus mbH and the Cottbus Chamber of Commerce and Industry are supporting the conference together with other partners in order to give local entrepreneurs valuable insights.

This year the award conference will be even bigger: more than twice as many providers are expected as last year. Around 300 participants have already registered, which suggests that the large cinema hall will be well filled. This conference will provide the opportunity to present more than 350 planned awards from the construction, procurement and services sectors. This is an excellent opportunity for companies to take advantage of the opportunities and find out about the new procurement regulations that will come into force from 2025.

An information offering for everyone

The award conference not only serves as a platform for presenting contract opportunities, but also offers direct contact with awarding bodies. Companies can present their concerns quickly and effectively in a compact pitch mode. An informative part, organized by the Order Advice Center Brandenburg e.V., will provide detailed information on the upcoming changes to the procurement law situation. To ensure that this valuable information does not go to waste, online access to the award profiles is also provided, which presents all the information in a clear manner.

District Administrator Harald Altekrüger puts it aptly: “Collaboration is the key to strengthening our regional economy” – a principle that the organizers of the award conference also follow. Companies wishing to participate in the event are invited to register by November 3, 2025. Participation is free of charge, but the number of places is limited.
