Foundation of German Business (sdw) appoints Dr Nicole Saverschek as Head, Klaus Murmann Scholarship

From June 1st, she will head the Klaus Murmann Scholarship Programme, one of 13 federal scholarship programmes funded by the Federal Ministry for Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR). Currently, around 2,000 high-achieving and dedicated undergraduate and doctoral students receive financial and non-material support. They are empowered to assume responsibility as value-oriented and entrepreneurial leaders in business and society.

I am very much looking forward to the new task and to continuing the successful work together with the team, the scholarship recipients and the many alumni, volunteers and partners, and to offering support for young people that helps them to actively shape the future.
