The city hosts the Federal Office of Bundeswehr Equipment, Information Technology and In-Service Support (BAAINBw), responsible for the Bundeswehr’s procurement processes. In Koblenz we will also meet with leading institutions and companies that connect SMEs to the Bundeswehr, such as the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Koblenz, WIMCOM GmbH , and Industrieanlagen-Betriebsgesellschaft mbH (IABG).
