Industry, sector and branch
Industry describes a line of business, as in the insurance industry; sector can describe a broader area, such as the healthcare sector. Branch often means a local office or subdivision. Practise introducing your company and role in a first business conversation.
We work in the insurance industry. Our Hannover branch handles corporate accounts.Insurance: clarify a claim
In insurance, a claim is a request for payment under a policy. Practise asking for the policy number and date of loss without making a coverage commitment.
Could you confirm the policy number and the date of loss?Suppliers and trade fair contacts: agree the next step
For automotive and trade fair conversations, practise a short product description, questions about specifications and a concrete follow-up. Your trainer plays a purchasing contact; you then write an email recording requirements and the next meeting.
Which specifications does the component need to meet? Shall we arrange a technical call next week?10

Hannover is a B2B city: insurance, automotive, medicine, trade fairs. Every industry has its own specialist vocabulary. An insurance broker needs different English than a VW engineer or a trade fair exhibitor.
