Healthcare industry: a key driver of the German economy
The healthcare sector is one of the most critical industrial pillars worldwide, playing a vital role in Europe and Germany.
In 2021, medical technology, healthcare, life sciences, and pharmaceuticals collectively contributed over 12.1% to Germany’s GDP (Source: Federal Ministry of Health).
All four segments are experiencing robust growth, driven by factors such as demographic shifts and rising life expectancy in industrialized nations.
These dynamics underscore the sector’s societal importance, as demonstrated during the recent pandemic. Research, science, and industry continue to deliver innovative solutions to meet evolving medical challenges. The healthcare sector’s resilience to economic cycles further reinforces its role as a powerful job engine, fueling growth across the entire German economy.
