SOCIAL COMMITMENT<br />
We are also committed to charitable and cultural causes. For example, VZ finances<br />
benches along hiking trails throughout Switzerland, our employees spend a few hours a<br />
year working in nature, experiencing ecological knowledge first-hand, and they pass on<br />
their professional expertise to students at universities and universities of applied sciences.<br />
6.1 Sponsoring and charitable activities<br />
In <strong>2022</strong>, MyBluePlanet, Fragile Suisse, Dargebotene Hand (helpline for people in need)<br />
and the USZ Foundation were featured in the vz news. With well over 890,000 readers,<br />
vz news is a valuable platform for these organisations to present their work in order to<br />
gain members and receive donations (examples below).<br />
Portraits in vz news<br />
Since 2009, VZ has been a sponsor of >>venture>>, the premier competition for aspiring<br />
entrepreneurs in Switzerland. The competition supports innovative young people to<br />
transform business ideas into start-up companies. Matthias Reinhart, founder of VZ, is<br />
a member of the Advisory Board and helps select the winners.<br />
