In the coming years, the semiconductor industry in northern Dresden will undergo dynamic development. This will have an impact on both the industrial and service sectors in the Dresden region. On the one hand, this is due to the current creation of several thousand new jobs in the semiconductor industry. On the other hand, it is the result of the expected establishment of further companies as suppliers and service providers. Furthermore, the establishment of additional companies in the north of Dresden will contribute to further accelerating this development.

As a result, an increased influx of workers and their families is to be expected not only in the area of the state capital Dresden, but also in the immediate and wider surroundings of Dresden (hereinafter referred to as the “Dresden region”).

In order to support these positive developments, the cities and municipalities of the Dresden region, among other stakeholders, are called upon to support and promote the expected economic and demographic development through appropriate measures.

The expected influx of new residents will have a direct impact on the social infrastructure in cities and municipalities with high levels of migration. A lasting change in the housing situation in these areas is also predicted. In addition, the expected population development in these areas will change.

The first step is to determine the labor and skilled workers needed for the further development of the companies. Furthermore, it must be examined whether potential from the region can be utilized or developed. Finally, it must be determined which labor and skilled workers will commute to and move to the region and to what extent this will be the case. Finally, conclusions will be drawn about population development, the impact on the housing market, and specific recommendations for action for the cities and municipalities in the Dresden region.

CIMA – Institut für Regionalwirtschaft, Hannover was commissioned to conduct the study. Initial results are expected in the fourth quarter of 2025.
