Highlights - Societal Engagement

Thanks to our practice orientation and focus on impact, we are able to make a valuable contribution to society. Through strong entrepreneurial engagement within the HSG ecosystem, we develop concrete solutions to sustainability challenges. Members of our university are also involved in a variety of knowledge exchange activities with society.

“We understand sustainability holistically and implement it in the best HSG spirit. Our entrepreneurial drive, scientific insights and new technologies offer great potential to contribute to innovative solutions for a sustainable future.”
Prof Dr Dietmar Grichnik, Vice-President for Innovation & Quality
