Trade & investment representation Germany, Austria, Switzerland (2010 onwards)

AHP International has been Pennsylvania's official Trade & Investment representation for the Germany speaking markets since 2010. Every year we serve approximately 30-40 projects and businesses seriously considering an investment in Pennsylvania. 

As an inward investment representation AHP International assists German speaking clients in making their investment decision for Pennsylvania. AHP International generates leads, visits the companies at their premises and provides tailored information and support.

In close cooperation with the team in Harrisburg AHP International arranges site visits to Pennsylvania and actively assists in the set-up of the new business in Pennsylvania. AHP International defines its preferred strategy and reports results and activities back to Pennsylvania.

AHP International is the relevant contact point for potential investors seeking financial or other support from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. As part of the DCED Department of Community and Economic Development, AHP International refers projects to the Governor’s action team which negotiates and agrees financial support like grants and other project finance means.

We operate our own microsite detailing the investment opportunities Pennsylvania has on offer in order to better inform and reach German speaking prospects: www.newPA.de.
