German-American Industry Collaboration
German industry plays a key role in the United States: As importers, investors, and employers, German companies shape the U.S. economy. Education and training of workers are of particular importance to companies on both sides of the Atlantic. Almost 4,800 companies in the United States benefit from German investment; most of these are affiliates of small- and medium-sized enterprises. With 674,000 workers, German companies are the fourth-largest foreign employer in the United States, accounting for almost 10 percent of the total 6.8 million U.S. jobs created by foreign affiliates. More than ten percent of foreign direct investment in the United States comes from Germany, with the manufacturing sector benefitting most. Source: Federal Ministry of Education and Research
