When the process of registration of the Foundation in the National Court Register is over, the ‘Lublin Automotive and Machinery Upland’ Cluster will be established. It will be coordinated by the Foundation and will have a supra-regional character.

The creation of the ‘Lublin Automotive and Machinery Upland Foundation’ is the next element of establishing ‘Lublin Automotive & Machinery Upland’ ecosystem, that will increase the competitiveness of Lublin industry. The first was signing the trilateral agreement between The City of Lublin, URSUS S.A., and TUM International GmbH representing the Technical University of Munich in July 2017 to create Smart Industry Centre – integrated industrial park in the area of about 140 hectares in the Tatary District of Lublin, which will help the city lure both domestic and foreign investors representing the key sectors of the local economy and create common ground for cooperation with local suppliers.
