Munich today – news from February 28th, 2022 – Munich

When you think of the presence of the tech group Apple in Munich, the first thing that most people think of is the large “store” on Rosenstrasse. Anyone who is in the Olympia shopping center from time to time might know the Apple branch there. What is less well known is that the group has had 1,500 employees in Munich in research and development for some time. Most of them are located in an office building on Arnulfstraße and in offices above the central bus station right next door. But this can only be seen from the outside if you look closely, for example on the doorbell.

Apple wants to expand this area massively and spend one billion euros in three years. The group has already rented two office buildings in Maxvorstadt. Now, directly opposite, a third property is apparently to be added that Apple wants to take over from the Free State. However, this possible deal raises some questions (SZ Plus).

It is quite possible that these considerations will also revive the debates as to whether Munich should promote the expansion of corporations such as Apple and Google. The concern of the people of Munich about the already scarce living space always plays a role here – although the people who are new to Munich with the corporations are less likely to be eligible for subsidized apartments. This comment is about what Apple, but also the Free State, can contribute to the debates.
