Together with academic partners, Wissensfabrik develops projects that can be implemented in day care centers and schools. By connecting start-ups and established companies, opportunities for intensive mutual exchanges are offered.

Members assume social responsibility by drawing on their main strengths to support innovative, practical, relevant projects and provide the expertise and skills of the people in their network.

“Together with other dedicated companies, we get to serve projects that enable children and youths to actively shape the digital transformation in all parts of life,” explains Gerhard Oswald, Member of the Executive Board of SAP SE.

The network of schools and industry, together with the IT project, serves as a model for age-based teaching of IT topics at schools. With the rollout of the model accomplished in Germany, it will be rolled out as a best practice in other countries within the SAP Young Thinkers program.
