All over the world, education is the basis for a future that is worth striving for. By making sure that people have the right theoretical and practical skills to use new technologies and processes, companies can continue to be innovative and sustainable. And that will also enable people to participate in all the cultural, political, social and economic aspects of a society.
As a leading global partner to companies and educational institutes and as a family-run company, Festo is fully committed to the development of teaching and learning environments and the transfer of knowledge worldwide. That is why, as a company, we take social responsibility for current and future generations through our corporate educational responsibility (CER) initiatives. We are convinced that this will enable us to bring about far-reaching, positive changes in industry and society, that education contributes to peace and prosperity all over the world, and that it opens up long-term, sustainable opportunities for people.
Sustainability is, above all, what links corporate and social perspectives. At Festo, we are and remain convinced of the importance of knowledge and education, technology and innovation, and it goes hand in hand with a total commitment to technical education and knowledge transfer. The contribution we also make to the future viability of society is what we refer to as corporate educational responsibility (CER). The work we are doing and the constant improvements we make in this area are also an indispensable basis for the long-term success of our company.
