The former east site of the Expo 2000 in Hanover is called Expo-Park Hannover . Today it belongs entirely to the Mittelfeld district . Until the district boundaries were corrected, the predominant southern part belonged to the Bemerode district . Today it is an IT, media and high-tech industrial park with an integrated campus of the Hanover University of Applied Sciences and the Hanover multimedia vocational school.

The Expo-Park Hannover is characterized by a network between research, teaching and companies. The knowledge transfer and the maintenance of contacts in a global context are promoted by the physical proximity to CeBIT , the leading trade fair for information technology and telecommunications, and other leading international trade fairs organized by Deutsche Messe AG .

The Expo Park Hannover is by the Messeschnellweg bridging Exponale the fairgrounds connected. Due to this neighborhood and the connection to the Messeschnellweg and the Hanover city railway , the Expo-Park has a well-developed infrastructure despite the distance of 10 km from the city center.

Structurally, the technology park is characterized by the former Expo pavilions, landscaped gardens and the Expo Plaza. The area is embedded in the Expo-Park-Süd landscape park. The garden landscape “Gardens in Transition” designed for the EXPO in 2000 runs through the area in a north-south direction.
