“This Is Our Home!”
One signature, one sign: as a new partner, TUM Campus Heilbronn expands the regional Alliance for Transformation
The Alliance for Transformation of the Heilbronn-Franconia region functions according to the principle of solidarity and was founded more than two years ago with its sights set on the future. The focus is on supporting small and medium-sized enterprises. Even before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, regional businesses were facing a wide range of challenges – from digitalization and the mobility revolution to the increasing shortage of skilled workers. The COVID crisis has further complicated the situation. To remain competitive, companies must adapt existing business models to the current situation, make investments, and train existing staff. The Alliance for Transformation supports this process by networking companies with the region’s key players.
Together for the Region
Since 2022, TUM Campus Heilbronn gGmbH has been a partner of this alliance in order to contribute to the sustainable competitiveness of the region here as well. It’s a win-win situation. Because TUM Campus Heilbronn uses its membership for networking and professional exchange in a regional and international context. The social, political and economic players in the network, in turn, benefit from further projects, the acquisition of additional resources and the reinforcement of network effects.
"We want to help shape change, because this is our home!"
Daniel A. Gottschald emphasizes: “Due to the steadily growing university operations at the educational campus, an international student body, globally networked scientific excellence, and, last but not least, our growing regional commitment, the TUM Campus Heilbronn has itself been part of the regional transformation now since 2018. By joining the Alliance for Transformation, we are taking on further responsibility for Heilbronn and the region.”
