Our goal
We believe that technological innovation requires being future-oriented, staying ahead of the curve and working consistently to realise one’s vision as our founder Karl Schlecht has done, both in his business career and in his philanthropy.
In 2004, KSG endowed a chair for wind energy at the University of Stuttgart, when wind farm construction was still facing significant political and community resistance, and we continue to support technology and social innovation labs in several higher education institutions, schools and extra-curricular programmes.
Through these programmes, we enable young people to develop their curiosity and skills and promote a spirit of innovation in social and economic spaces. "Made in Germany," we believe, should remain a mark of outstanding technology and excellent engineering.
