Banner Intro Text

The EIB has worked with Germany since 1960. We financed big infrastructure projects, such as the electrification of the North-South rail link, and we helped cleaning up the Emscher River, formerly known as the „Sewer of the Ruhr area ", which since 2021 is completely wastewater-free.

Our financing helped Biontech to develop its highly effective COVID-19-vaccine at the very beginning of the pandemic. We also support energy efficient affordable housing and we work on getting public transport carbon free.

BioNTech advances towards COVID-19 vaccine with EIB backing

When Özlem Türeci and her husband, Uğur Şahin, announced that the COVID-19 vaccine developed by their company, BioNTech, had excellent results in its latest tests, the couple took a short break from their round-the-clock research schedule. But only long enough to drink a cup of tea.

Conscious of the vital nature of their research, the two immune engineers have led the Mainz-based company to the frontrunner’s spot in the race for a vaccine.
