Students4excellence

The Vienna Insurance Group, Erste Group, McKinsey & Company, mobilkom austria, OMV and Wolf Theiss are joint sponsors of the “Students4excellence” initiative for assisting top students in Austrian universities and universities of applied science. In addition to creating a support network for talented and committed students, the partnership also provides these students with an opportunity to network among themselves.

The partner companies offer mentoring programmes and internships, organise a variety of events with potential employers, and provide financial support to outstanding students.

Balkan Case Challenge

For the second time now, the Vienna Insurance Group is supporting the Balkan Case Challenge in cooperation with World University Service (WUS) Austria. What makes this annual competition special is the in-depth collaboration between academic institutions and the business community. The competition also promotes cooperation between different cultures and religions and the exchange of knowledge and ideas between the best students in Austria and more than twelve countries of Southeastern Europe.

Educational partnerships

In addition to the “Students4excellence” and “Balkan Case Challenge” projects, the Vienna Insurance Group was also involved in partnerships with educational institutions in 2009. Partnerships currently exist with the Zentrum für Berufsplanung (Career Planning Centre) at the University of Vienna, the Krems University of Applied Sciences (a course in the area of health management), and the Vienna University of Economics and Business.
