Testimonials

"EBS is one of the best addresses for the education of tomorrow's managers. In committing myself to EBS I want to contribute personally to the continued success of the university and build a bridge between science and practice."

Prof. Dr. Karlheinz Hornung, President Deutsches Aktieninstitut

 

"Education is one of the most important resources in our society to strengthen innovation and growth. As world economies come closer together and through the new international division of labour, education has become a crucial competitive factor. Through my involvement in EBS Foundation Executive Board I would like to underline the importance of this issue for Deutsche Bank,"

Jürgen Fitschen, Board Member Deutsche Bank

 

I want to support EBS, focusing in particular on the education and training of management competencies for mid-sized family businesses, which call for personal responsibility, long-term thinking and personal entrepreneurship. In this respect, it is important to me to create real motivation and the necessary conditions at EBS.

Dagmar Sikorski, CEO Internationale Musikverlage Hans Sikorski

 

 "As part of our partnership with EBS, Aareal Bank acknowledges an overriding, a social commitment. Education is our most precious commodity and knowledge the most valuable raw material in the 21st. century. In the international competitive environment knowledge is the most important location advantage we have. We need people who are willing to take on responsibility and we need role models. This is why our sponsorship activities are consciously geared towards high potentials to support the development of tomorrow's high performers."

Dr. Wolf Schumacher, Chairman of the Board Aareal Bank
