The Bavarian State Ministry for Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy addresses a wide range of topics such as SME policy, digitization, the energy transition, regional development and mobile communications infrastructure. We ensure that the Free State will continue to be one of the best in the world as a business location. All entrepreneurs should have the best conditions for their economic success - we are convinced of that. That is why we are not only committed to a high level of competitiveness, but also promote innovations, support founders and work to create attractive employment opportunities. We know the interests of Bavarian companies: from global corporations to medium-sized family businesses, from industry to crafts and tourism to retail. The economic policy compass of our work is the social market economy. In this way we create prosperity for all people in our country. In concrete terms, we support the companies in the form of many funding programs, such as the digital bonus or the High-Tech Agenda Bavaria.

The Hydrogen Center Bavaria (H2.B) is the strategy and coordination center for hydrogen in Bavaria, initiated and financed by the Free State of Bavaria. The Center acts at the interface between industry, science and politics in a national and international context. The numerous activities of the Center are intended, among information and consulting, to strengthen the networking of Bavarian hydrogen stakeholders with each other (in the Hydrogen Alliance Bavaria), as well as with other national and international players. In addition, the H2.B coordinates the Hydrogen Alliance Bavaria. In 2020, the H2.B and its partners in the Hydrogen Alliance Bavaria developed a Position Paper about the Bavarian Hydrogen Economy as a first step towards the Bavarian Hydrogen Strategy. In April 2022, the H2.B published the Hydrogen Roadmap Bavaria.

The Hydrogen Alliance Bavaria is a joint platform for networking, knowledge and interests of hydrogen stakeholders from industry, science and politics with a headquarter in Bavaria. The Alliance is coordinated by the Center Hydrogen.Bavaria (H2.B).
