The Helmut Fischer Foundation
We believe that science, research, education and art, as the supporting pillars of society, should be accessible to all. This was also very important to the entrepreneur Helmut Fischer. Some 50 years after the company was founded, he transferred his shares in the company to the Helmut Fischer Foundation. In his spirit, we have also been supporting young scientists and artists who are not employed by us since 2003.
