The introduction offers a comprehensive podcast that provides a first impression of the city and who could do this better than Leipzig´s head mayor Burkhard Jung. The additional audio pieces revolve around culture (two parts), creative Leipzig, logistics, science and quality of life. In the six podcasts on different topics, we felt it was important to hear from people who are branch experts or industry insiders.
