        Do they though? They are building modern factories with high automations and are getting massive incentives to do so.

        Additionally they need a lot of jobs, the region is poor, so we can only hope that attracting a few high profile players can create an effect that causes others to gravitate there.

        As this will most likely also alleviate the AfD problem.
