A region full of hidden champions
The Münsterland is a region of doers: instead of talking about something for a long time, things are simply put into practice here. Between meadows and hedgerows, innovative products are invented that go around the world. From small and picturesque places, our companies and businesses export all over the world.
The unknown world market leaders
But hardly anyone knows about them. Because the economic strength of the Münsterland lies above all in the small and medium-sized enterprises. Some of them are among the so-called "hidden champions". Although they have a large share in the economic success of the region, they are rather unknown to the public because they serve a niche market and/or are owner-managed.
Hidden champions in detail
The list of hidden champions in Münsterland is long. That's why only a small selection is presented here. But you can see all the secret world market leaders on the map. Most of them are active in the industrial sector. Especially mechanical engineering and the rubber and plastics industry stand out.

Innovation Stories: Success stories from the region
Ever heard of an environmentally friendly labelling machine? Or a smart walking stick? Or a sustainable underfloor heating system? These are just a few examples of particularly innovative ideas from Münsterland. And they are all successful because they were launched as cooperative projects. Because when different companies, institutions or scientific facilities put their heads together, the entire region often benefits.
