We have the future in our sights, and the solutions we are working on orient to this. Technology can’t solve all the world’s problems – but it can make a crucial contribution. Our response to climate change is to use Bosch technology to make our locations worldwide carbon neutral, and we are already working to achieve our next sustainability milestones. Our research and development is pressing ahead to establish the hydrogen economy and electromobility. In our view, it is our task to extend our technological expertise for the good of society – and in doing so to give rise to technology that is ever better and smarter. It’s no coincidence that our strategic imperative is “Invented for life.”
The digital transformation is in full swing and Software Campus gives us the opportunity to link industry and scientific research on future technologies and thus work on topics of practical relevance. By participating in this initiative, we want to generate knowledge, develop innovations, and make progress in the field of software. This is only possible with outstanding personalities. The interweaving of professional and personal development measures in the Software Campus is ideally suited to finding and developing these personalities. Our commitment is an ideal complement to the Industrial Data Lab - a co-operation between Bosch and the University of Stuttgart. We are delighted to be part of the Software Campus.
