The Ost-Ausschuss der Deutschen Wirtschaft is a German foreign trade association promoting economic relations between Germany and 29 countries in Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe, the South Caucasus, and Central Asia. It offers services like project support, contact mediation, and market entry guidance. The association targets German businesses, particularly SMEs, and collaborates closely with the federal government and partner countries. Its unique selling proposition is facilitating trade and investment by reducing barriers and enhancing legal certainty, making it a key intermediary for German companies expanding into these regions[1][2][3].
