Kansas Governor Sam Brownback and Secretary of Commerce Pat George last week conducted a three day, three city tour of Germany to promote business development and investment in Kansas. While in Germany, the Governor met with representatives from several companies with Kansas interests.

The tour of Germany began on Wednesday with a visit to Bayer Animal Health. Brownback and George then toured Viega, which relocated its North American headquarters to Kansas in 2006. The final stop was the Airbus production facility.

Following the tour of Airbus, Governor Brownback and Secretary George met with leaders in the German renewable energy industry.
