Experts.Network.<strong>Steinbeis</strong>.<br />

A subsidiary of the <strong>Steinbeis</strong> Foundation, our university<br />

is part of the <strong>Steinbeis</strong> <strong>Transfer</strong> Network’s worldwide<br />

pool of experts. Founding <strong>Steinbeis</strong> University Berlin<br />

was the next logical step in integrating genuine transfer<br />

with training and employee development. It also perfectly<br />

encapsulates the Foundation’s raison d’être: to<br />

place current research at businesspeople’s fingertips.<br />

The <strong>Steinbeis</strong> name is synonymous with efficiently and<br />

effectively blending theory and practice, science and<br />

business as well as the tangible transfer.<br />

Established in today´s form in 1983 in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, the <strong>Steinbeis</strong><br />

<strong>Transfer</strong> Network has evolved into a powerhouse for competitive knowledge and technology<br />

transfer. Thanks to our decentralized organization and flat structure, we respond<br />

quickly to companies’ needs, unburdened by bureaucracy. When technology sources<br />

are made available, we strictly adhere to the rules of the marketplace. Each transfer<br />

project lends the company that commissioned it tangible competitive advantages.<br />

With an offer spanning consulting, research and development, training and employee<br />

development alongside evaluation and expert reports, more than 800 Centers belong<br />

to the <strong>Steinbeis</strong> <strong>Transfer</strong> Network. And more than 5,500 employees manage their own<br />

projects. In fact, over 800 of these employees are professors from partner universities,<br />

universities of applied sciences and research establishments. As a collection of specialists,<br />

our Centers cover the entire range of technological and management-related fields.<br />

Our Center directors – usually professors – strongly support our transfer principles.<br />

The <strong>Steinbeis</strong> <strong>Transfer</strong> Network is financially independent and works in partnership<br />

with experts at universities, universities of applied sciences, universities of cooperative<br />

education and research establishments. Since each Center operates as a profit center,<br />

directors and employees adopt the role of “transfer entrepreneurs” for the entire Stein -<br />

beis company, never failing to place top priority on customers and business success.<br />
