The towns of Remscheid, Solingen and Wuppertal have come together to form the commercial region of the "Bergisch Triangle".

Competence³ will enable the area to push ahead with a uniform structural development above and beyond the town boundaries.

The Bergisch Triangle, with around 650.000 inhabitants and 30.000 companies, is located centrally in Nordrhein-Westfalen between the Rhine and the Ruhr. Nestling in a charming landscape with a lively and varied cultural scene and good connections to all major transport and traffic routes, the region is positioning itself deliberately as an exciting future residential and commercial region.

As part of the campaign "Regionale 2006", the towns are jointly putting together structural projects that are setting town-planning, cultural and commercial highlights for the region, further enhancing its image and making it fit for the future.
