Foreword
Smart is as smart does
If you want to be successful, you should never
be satisfied with the status quo. When Berlin’s
economy was shrinking, it was important to get
the city back on track to growth. But now that
growth is the new normal, an intelligent response
is required. Because simply continuing to want
more of the same is neither clever, nor beneficial or even desirable. In short: it isn’t smart. And
smart thinking – and even more importantly, a
smart approach – is crucial in a metropolis with
more than 3.5 million inhabitants, a figure which
is swelling by nearly 50,000 every year, where
there is growing pressure on living space and as
well as commercial space, and where citizens are
determined to demand more of a say in their future.
And all of this comes at a time when the digital
revolution is introducing radical changes to every sphere of public and private life. The success
of smart growth strategies for Berlin will have to
be measured against the extent to which they
are able to overcome these challenges. Political,
social and economic players will bear joint responsibility for devising and implementing these
strategies.
The 2016 edition of ‘Berlin’s Economy in Figures’ uses statistics to illustrate and interpret the
most important processes of growth and transformation in our city: new start-ups and the job
market, exports and science, population figures
Dr. Beatrice Kramm,
President of CCI Berlin,
and Stephan Schwarz,
President of the Chamber
of Skilled Crafts Berlin
and annual income are all represented and explained with clear diagrams.
We also use specially selected data to highlight
the symbiotic relationship which exists between
Berlin and the state of Brandenburg.
But even this compendium has not escaped the
effects of the digital revolution: we have drastically reduced its size in comparison with earlier
editions, and are now posting a comprehensive
set of facts and figures on the websites of CCI
Berlin and the Chamber of Skilled Crafts Berlin:
a more sustainable, efficient and also smarter
solution. Because the same applies equally to
ourselves: we never want to be satisfied with the
status quo.

Ascending the growth peaks
Mountaineers often say that every time you
conquer a peak, another, even higher mountain
heaves into view. This adage also applies to recent
developments in Berlin’s economic performance.
The first and most difficult ascent – overcoming
the structural weakness in economic growth –
is now behind us: Berlin has ranked among the
leading federal states in this category in many,
albeit not all, years in the recent past. Yet the
next peak is already on the horizon: Berlin continues to perform well below the German average
in terms of per-capita values, and is strongly
outperformed by the front-runners. The GDP per
employed person in Berlin is only 95 percent of
the national figure, and this falls to as little as
83 percent when it comes to primary income*.
Berlin is growing first and foremost through the
creation of new jobs, with rising productivity
playing a comparatively minor role. The city’s
next great challenge will be to create conditions conducive to boosting productivity in new
and existing workplaces. Traditional strategies
will be required, such as strengthening the links
between business and science, but it will also be
important to create and maintain opportunities
for entrepreneurial experimentation. And once
this peak too has been conquered, the next will
rise up right behind it.
* The primary income of private households (including private non-profit organisations) incorporates income from gainful employment
and assets coming into private households in Germany. More specifically, this income includes employee compensation, the mixed income
of self-proprietorships or self-employed persons, including remuneration for family workers, the operating surplus from the production of
services from one’s own use of residential property, and net receipts from investment income (including the purchase of financial services,
indirect measurement).

Berlin conurbation*
* For explanatory notes, cf. p. 28
The gravitational pull towards the centre
Just as bright stars maintain planets in their
orbit, so a shining metropolis draws people to
its centre and outskirts. And Berlin is no exception: its population has been growing for quite
some time, and in the last few years the equivalent of the population of an entire city has
taken up residence here. What is lesser-known is
that the Berlin outer conurbation* has also been
seeing its population rise dramatically – in the
last twenty years alone, it has attracted 200,000
new inhabitants, who responded to the gravitational pull of the metropolis. Tens of thousands
commute into the city every day. And businesses
with a relatively large need for space are also
settling in Berlin’s outer conurbation.
8
They are thus able to distance themselves from
the competition for space in the urban centre
whilst at the same time benefitting from its
cosmopolitanism, employment and research
potential. The Berlin conurbation* is one of
the few regions in Germany which looks set to
remain demographically stable in the future.
In 2030, about 77 percent of the population is
expected to be of working age. In the regions
of Brandenburg which are slightly more distant
from Berlin, this figure will only be 63 percent.

* The Federal Employment Agency reviewed the employment statistics.
This revision of the number of employees subject to social insurance only goes back to 2007. Earlier data has not been revised.
A consistent trend
For the last ten years, the size of the workforce in
Berlin has been growing at a remarkably steady
pace. The graph illustrating this trend shows a
steady upward progression. Even tremors such
as those caused by the Lehman crisis left only
a minor dent in this line, which exhibited no
decline in any of the years in question. The graph
depicting employees subject to social insurance
is even more gratifying, as since 2010 it has been
climbing even more steeply than before. Companies in Berlin created an additional 175,000 jobs
during this period alone, with more than 45,000
dating to the period between December 2014
and the end of 2015.
The way this trend develops in the future will be
largely dependent on increased productivity and
our ability to continue to attract a highly-qualified skilled workforce to Berlin. Berlin’s ‘jobs
miracle’ could never have been achieved without
the growth in population we have witnessed in
recent years. It is important to ensure that the
city remains attractive to incomers so that we
have an ever-growing pool of skilled workers to
call on. At the same time, we should be tackling our still high unemployment rate by improving skills and helping the jobless to fulfil their
potential.

Beacons of knowledge
Berlin may only have one Fernsehturm, but it is
still a towering presence in the field of academia.
Many of its dozens of beacons of knowledge
are of no lesser prestige than the sky-scraping
structure next to Alexanderplatz: the Humboldt
University keeps alive the spirit of humanistic
traditions, while the Free University represents
a radical break with tradition. At many research
institutions, of which those of the Max Planck
Society are among the best known, the secrets of
nature and culture are being unravelled – Berlin
was and remains a site where knowledge is safeguarded, taught and generated. From the prosaic
viewpoint of commerce, this affords the location
an important advantage; not just for companies
involved in research and development, but also
14
because it can provide training and career development for skilled labour.
But the role played by academic instituions in
Berlin goes much further than this. They play an
important part in underpinning and reinvigorating the city’s cosmopolitan outlook, and attract
teachers and students here from all over the
world. It is difficult to overstate their contribution
to the vibrant intellectual atmosphere of Berlin,
where pioneering approaches and experimentation are the norm rather than the exception. To
date, we can count 110 beacons of knowledge.
And that number is bound to increase.

You don’t always notice the figures in the shadows…
Statistics give us a snapshot of reality. They tell
us, for instance, that Berlin’s export rate was
only 11.4 percent last year. But does that actually represent the true picture? Perhaps it does,
if you adopt the traditional definition, whereby
goods cross borders to reach consumers. But
what if the user himself comes to Berlin to
spend his money? That scenario is not recorded
in the export statistics. But in Berlin, this type of
service exportation is the most important form
of cross-border trade relations. If you were to
include the spending of more than ten million
tourists a year, then the contribution to Berlin’s
GDP stemming from other countries would be
considerably higher.
16
This is not to undermine in any way the calls
for better local conditions, especially for small
and medium-sized export businesses. It does,
however, put Berlin’s export rate – which is
much discussed and often invoked as evidence
of Berlin’s lack of competitive strength – in
perspective. It also sheds light on an area which
tends to be hidden among the shadows of statistical reality.

The symbiotic relationship between Berlin and Brandenburg
Berlin has a very close relationship with its outer conurbation. Many inhabitants of the city’s affluent
suburbs commute into the capital every day for work – and more than a few travel in the opposite
direction as well. And indeed, many of Berlin’s inhabitants are continuing the trend of relocating to
the charming countryside beyond the vibrant metropolis, probably in part because of rising living
costs: in 2015, more than 22,000 Berliners moved to the commuter belt – in contrast, somewhere in
the region of 13,000 inhabitants of the outer conurbation moved to Berlin. Meanwhile, some of the
municipalities of Brandenburg which are closest to Berlin have achieved almost full employment. In
fact, at 8.7 percent, unemployment in Brandenburg is even quite lower than in Berlin. The economic
magnetism of the conurbation is considerable, and reaches out into the furthest – generally rural –
corners of Brandenburg, and even across its borders.
