Social Responsibility - Starkkraft Technologies GmbH

A Brighter Future…

injecting meaning and purpose into every
single working day

Working at Starkkraft Technologies means you have a strong believe in a bright and positive future. Regardless of gender, ethnicity, believe, color, culture or status. We aim on making a positive and meaningful impact every single day we do business. We care and act with genuine kindness, connecting meaning and purpose to our every day business. We organize this in a broader collaborative approach: together with our own Starkkraft teams of course, but also with our valued customers and prefered partners. Together we create a close connection, to the environment in which we work and live, both locally and globally.

Next to injecting meaning and purpose into our way of doing business, we feel the responsibility that companies should also use their resources to help tackle the larger current challenges in our world. Considering topics like the lives impacted by (geo) political conflicts and refugees adrift, but also global warming, ocean pollution and for instance the availability of fresh water, Starkkraft has the intention in its DNA to contribute in its own modest but structural way. We have created a collaborative approach because we feel this is the best way a company our size can help create a significant impact. Together with all our employees, our customers and our local and global partners we share and execute this feeling of responsibility together, and therefore we inject meaning and purpose in every single working day.

We kindly invite you to join us by showing small acts of care and kindness every day there, where we have touch points in the way we do business together. We can make a brighter world for everyone together!

Global challenges… why planting trees?

There are several major global challenges which all deserve and need our support and attention. Out of all these we decided in favour of supporting the planting of trees in areas where this is needed most. There are many reasons behind this specific choice:

Planting trees has a direct impact on:

carbon reduction
restoring forests
improving wildlife habitats
upgrading water catchment areas
offer flowers, fruit fodder and fuel for local communities and all living creatures
creates many healthy low-skill jobs
provides benefit to current and future generations
has a direct impact

What do we do?

Our speciality is delivering state of the art IT consultancy and services, not planting trees. Also we are situated in western Europe which is not directly the most urgent place on earth where the benefit of planting trees has the broadest impact. Hence, to increase the value and impact of our initiative and in order to obtain the needed global reach, we have connected to a specialist partner: Plant-for-the-Planet. Based out of Germany and run by children, for many years Plant-for-the-Planet runs successful tree planting programs supported by the Indian government. The tree planting projects and initiatives take place across the globe. Areas that are heavily under pressure by deforestation and where there is much to gain. We sympathise with the operating model and local impact of Plant-for-the-Planet and believe there is much value in supporting this.

To fuel this partnership and secure impact, we have created a incentive structure in our company to which all employees, customers and partners contribute based on. The 2019 yearly biggest Starkkraft tree planter receives The Tree award, and is offered to visit his program of choice and connect to the teams onsite and has the honour to offer them a substantial additional gift.

Planting trees is becoming a true part of our company culture and we are thankful that we can contribute!
