As a former competitive athlete, I am particularly proud that we support the "Sprungbrett Zukunft" initiative in cooperation with the Stiftung Deutsche Sporthilfe. Thereby we offer young top athletes the opportunity to gain professional experience during short-term internships with flexible working hours while following demanding training schedules."
