Second Cottbus Awards Conference: Million dollar opportunities for companies!

Second Cottbus Awards Conference: Million dollar opportunities for companies!

There are signs of change in Lusatia: an important award conference will take place in the Cottbus Weltspiegel on November 13, 2025. This event promises to be an exciting opportunity for companies to learn about future contract opportunities. How Cottbus.de reports, billions are currently being invested in numerous projects, which could significantly boost the local economy. With a total value of over 700 million euros, around 200 awards are already being prepared and the interest is overwhelming: over 300 companies have already registered to take part in this event.

The conference not only offers a compact pitch mode that provides a quick overview of the upcoming tenders, but also direct contact with the awarding bodies. In addition, an information segment from the Brandenburg Order Advice Center e.V. will provide clarity about the new procurement regulations, which will come into force from 2025. After the event, all award profiles will be available online, making access to the offers even easier.

Collaboration in focus

District Administrator Harald Altekrüger also emphasizes the importance of cooperation. He sees the conference as an ideal platform to strengthen regional companies and sustainably promote the economy. The event is supported by various organizations, including EGC development company Cottbus mbH and the Cottbus Chamber of Commerce and Industry. The commitment of these groups shows that the region is determined to face the challenges of the market together.

But it's not just local businesses that should pay attention. Nowadays, protection against fraudulent activities is also an important issue. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has published information about fraudulent text messages that have been circulating more recently. According to a report from the FTC, consumers often receive fake messages that purport to come from trusted institutions such as banks or large retailers. These texts often use urgency to encourage recipients to take action, for example through offers of “free gifts,” but these often involve providing personal payment information. How FTC explains, it is advisable not to respond to such messages and instead to ask the company in question directly.

Quality in selection

Another exciting topic is the market for vacuum cleaners. Shark is one of the leaders in the US and recently overtook Dyson, Mintel analysis shows. The brand now controls over 20% of the vacuum cleaner market and offers a range of models that impress with their price-performance ratio and variety of functions. From the convenient lift-away function to HEPA filters that effectively filter dust particles, the products are designed to provide customers with an effective cleaning experience. Details about the best models and their features are on cleanthefloor.com to find.

With all of these developments in Lusatia and beyond, it will be exciting to see how the economy and the market for services will continue to change. The coming weeks and months promise promising prospects for companies and consumers alike.
