Strengthened in the future

The E/D/E foundation was founded in 2002 as a nonprofitmaking independent foundation by Dr. Eugen Trautwein, the long-term chairperson of the E/D/E executive board and former chairperson of the advisory council. The central task of the foundation is to promote training and education.

The profits of E/D/E foundation are generated by the foundation itself, but the foundation is also grateful for third party donations. With regard to the future, external donations are possible and very welcome.

The activities of the foundation are managed by an executive board and a board of trustees, whose members work on a voluntary basis. The E/D/E foundation is a member of the Association of German Foundations.

The E/D/E foundation is mainly committed to working in the following areas:
• Extra-occupational further training in industrial B2B in cooperation with the ZHH Trainingswerk.
• Support of pedagogic and cultural projects as well as social facilities in the region of Wuppertal.

The E/D/E foundation is based on the personal commitment of Dr. Eugen Trautwein. As the successor of E/D/E founder, Ferdinand Trautwein, and the former chairperson of the E/D/E executive board, his function is largely linked with the industry and the region of Wuppertal.

It is his desire to support young people in their acquirement of key qualifications. For this reason, the E/D/E Foundation offers young employees in industrial B2B scholarships for special training courses, which support personal development as well as technical training. Through these further educational measures, the future viability of medium-sized industrial B2B companies should also be supported.

The aim of creating future in the region of Wuppertal through training is also followed by the “Junior Uni” with great commitment. Long-term support by the E/D/E foundation is certain for this project, as a result.

Dr. Eugen Trautwein is also a member of the Schumpeter School Foundation, which devotes itself to the furthering of teaching, research and knowledge transfer in the context of the economic sciences at the University of Wuppertal.
