Discover business partners and talents at Witten/Herdecke University

Sustainable networking!

The UW/H’s supporters – whether individual private donors, companies or active committee members – see themselves as partners within a unique network. Through their involvement in supporting the university, our supporters have access to a wide variety of networking opportunities. At academic lectures, entrepreneurs’ breakfasts or scholarship holder meetings, supporters forge valuable connections with one another and with the young talents at UW/H. An investment in UW/H is therefore not a one-way street, but opens up a wide range of opportunities for value-adding exchange within a vibrant and stimulating network.

A regular feature of the charity dinner is a series of lectures by well-known figures, such as Minister Herbert Reul or BVB director Sebastian Kehl.
