Hanover Center for Production Technology (PZH)

Manufacturing technology has long been at home in the Region Hannover. From research and production to traditional mechanical and tool engineering and technical services, Hannover is a leading hub for the manufacturing industry both nationally and internationally. The close integration of science and industry ensures continuous innovation and practical developments.

The scientific hub of the initiative is the Production Technology Center Hannover (PZH). The production technology institutes of Leibniz University Hannover, numerous industrial companies, and young technology firms work and conduct research here under one roof in a space spanning over 20,000 square meters. This physical proximity fosters the exchange of knowledge and enables efficient collaboration between research and application.

Startups and young companies in the industry can rent office and workspace at the PZH Business Incubator on favorable terms. At the same time, they benefit directly from the latest research findings and can make the most of synergies.

The PZH is thus helping to strengthen Hannover as a hub for innovation in the long term and provides ideal conditions for the development of cutting-edge technologies in the field of production engineering.
