Did you know that…

For more than half a century, “Jugend forscht” (Young People Researching) has been the largest and best-known research and tinkering competition for science and technology in Germany. The competition is divided into two age groups: students between the ages of 10 and 14 compete in the junior division “Schüler experimentieren” (Students Experiment); participants up to the age of 21 compete in the division “Jugend forscht”. Since 2005, the HOERBIGER Group has been the sponsor and organizer of the preliminary competitions in the foothills of the Alps, thus making an important contribution to promoting young scientists in the region. The winners qualify for the Bavarian state competition, whose winners in turn reach the national competition. The young researchers and HOERBIGER are united by a passion for technology, a pioneering spirit to develop new ideas, and the courage to turn these ideas into successful projects.
