About the Competence Program

Through our "Competence Program", we help primarily medium-sized companies navigate the growing demands of sustainability—and capitalize on the opportunities presented by this transformation. The central aim of the Competence Program is to create a space for dialogue and peer learning.

Network and Skills Development for Businesses

The goal of our "Competence Program" service offering is to create a space for dialogue and peer learning, particularly for medium-sized companies. Across industries, this space is designed to enable companies to exchange and develop concrete approaches, methods, and experiences. In this way, we expand our network together. On a regular basis, specific topics are explored in depth with experts in a practical, real-world context, thereby building expertise.

Elements of the Competence Program

The Competence Program comprises the transfer of practical knowledge and methods, targeted in-depth content on relevant sustainability topics, tailor-made information and updates relevant to medium-sized companies, the exchange between experts, and the opportunity to network.
