In 2019, the Alabama Department of Commerce opened a business development office in Stuttgart, Germany, to enhance the state’s strategic efforts to attract European companies considering job-creating investments in the U.S. Christoph Doerr, an experienced German businessman who spent seven years in charge of an industrial operation in Alabama, serves as the director of the state’s European office. He will present the current German/European economic and business outlook for the state.

AGP Young Professionals Stammtisch/Networking at Rolf’s In Tuscaloosa |
| Join the Young Professionals (ages 17–39) for a Stammtisch at Rolf’s German Restaurant in downtown Tuscaloosa! This is a great opportunity for networking and socializing within the German community and business spheres of Alabama. Speaking German is encouraged, but not required. Rolf’s also offers a wide selection of authentic German food and beverages. What is a “Stammtisch?” A Stammtisch is an informal group meeting held regularly, and usually around a large table. A Stammtisch is not a structured meeting but a friendly and casual get-together. |
Es gibt’s Stammtisch, wie an jedem Donnerstag, ab halb acht Uhr abends im Giuseppes Café, 925 Eighth St. South, 324-2626.
Kommt und seid lustig!
