@helstontvx actually they have a 'German Silicon valley' called this way because of all the research, advancements, in microelectronics, nanoelectronics and related sectors. Of course with globalizations they're having a much fierce competition from South Korea, China, and other Asian countries but it still is the main industry in the state of Saxony.
