What makes Germany’s science future-proof? We have three answers: strong academic teaching, cutting-edge research, and knowledge transfer. The Dieter Schwarz Foundation supports all three areas with the goal of enabling the highest standards worldwide. And Heilbronn is at the heart of our commitment. From Heilbronn University to TU Munich and ETH Zurich, from the Ferdinand Steinbeis Institute to the Fraunhofer HNFIZ and the Max Planck Institutes: on our education campus, we provide state-of-the-art infrastructure for universities and research institutes that stand for scientific excellence and attract top international talent.
At the same time, by embedding teaching and research within a network of global market leaders, we create genuine competitive advantages for the region and for our country. This translates the location’s research strength directly into innovation and value creation.
In ZUKÜNFTE magazine, we present projects and personalities that shed light on Heilbronn as a hub of science and research — and show why networking makes all the difference.
