Current members include

  • 18 Wiesbaden-based industrial companies of various sizes and from various sectors
  • the Wiesbaden Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK)
  • the Wiesbaden-Rheingau-Taunus District Craftsmen’s Association
  • RheinMain University of Applied Sciences & Fresenius University of Applied Sciences
