The Cluster
The Commercial Vehicle Cluster represents as yet a unique opportunity of profile building within the industry. The CV-Cluster in the south-west of Germany acts as a platform for all those who are or would like to become involved in the conception, development, production, service and management of commercial vehicles.
Dr. Barbara Jörg, CEO
The CV-Cluster generates “Win-Win-Situations“, thus providing a communication as well as a co-operation
platform on a high level for all involved. Cluster partners therefore gain advantages in knowledge
and information.
A common goal
The reliability of commercial vehicles is the biggest challenge faced by all manufacturers and suppliers as well as researchers and developers. It is necessary to advance in this area and to gain top position internationally. This goal, which all cluster partners are heading for, is realistic in co-operation with others.
