Robert Bosch Stiftung GmbH

The Robert Bosch Stiftung works in the fields of health, education and global issues. Through its funding, it is committed to a fair and sustainable future. The foundation is a non-profit, independent and non-partisan organisation. It traces its origins to the legacy of Robert Bosch. In his will, the entrepreneur and founder set out a dual mandate: to ensure the continued existence of the company and to carry on his social commitment. Robert Bosch Stiftung GmbH maintains its own institutions, develops innovative projects and provides funding at both international and local levels. The foundation contributes the insights gained from its funding to the professional community and the public debate.

The foundation holds around 94 per cent of the shares in Robert Bosch GmbH and is financed by the dividends from these shares. The company and the foundation operate independently of one another. Since its foundation in 1964, the Robert Bosch Stiftung has spent more than 2.7 billion euros on its charitable work.
