As a member of the Charta der Vielfalt e.V. (Diversity Charter), we would like to congratulate you on this day of action, which for 10 years has been bringing the idea of
the idea of diversity into the world of work!

House of Plasma from Bochum! ?

The experts at House of Plasma are the developers of a multipole resonance probe that enables industry-compatible plasma diagnostics and successful use in industrial production processes.

House of Plasma offers top-class #measurement technology that significantly improves the quality of manufacturing processes in plasma surface treatments.

These three convinced us with their outstanding ideas, which we will present to you in detail next week, and won the RWTÜV Anniversary Startup Award!

Our 50 or so invited guests were also impressed by the creativity and know-how of our award winners, who presented their business ideas to us in short videos and talks.

After the award ceremony and greetings from our guests from politics and business, there was lively networking in the inspiring surroundings of the Buschhütten campus.

Who knows what exciting new projects might emerge?

Around 150 years ago, the self-help associations for steam boiler monitoring came into being, not only the predecessor of the RWTÜV for the industrial district of Lenne, Sieg and Dill e.V., but also in Great Britain, the whole of Germany, the neighbouring countries.

And what has grown out of that? An internationally active group with subsidiaries and branches on all continents. Over the decades, countless steam boiler explosions, car accidents, burst pipes and other accidents have been prevented, and even more inventions accompanied and exciting innovations made possible.

With their expertise and history of successful research activities, the development and testing laboratories of the subsidiaries of today’s RWTÜV Group are in demand worldwide. In parallel, the Group’s own foundation supports research projects and initiatives.

To this day, it remains the case that inspections alone cannot sufficiently minimise possible risks. As early as 1921, when a predecessor of RWTÜV still operated under the name of the Mines Association (Zechen-Verein) in Essen, a department for laboratory work was established in addition to the steam boiler department, electrical engineering department, and department for heat and power management.

We have packed the anniversary suitcase again and sent it on its next journey!

This time it's "across the pond" to the offices of RWTÜV subsidiary CETECOM in the USA. On an area of approx. 45,000 sqm, the colleagues sit here in the best neighbourhood to the companies in SiliconValley.

CETECOM USA mainly offers OTA, Wi-Fi and audio tests to suppliers of IT and telecommunications equipment in order to ideally prepare manufacturers for market approval.

At the Campus Buschhütten in Kreuztal, we will award prizes to the innovative business ideas of three start-up companies from NRW on 19 May 2022.

On the occasion of our 150th company anniversary, in cooperation with Startup Campus Siegen, we had announced a prize of 150,000 euros for young entrepreneurs under the patronage of the North Rhine-Westphalian Minister for Economic Affairs, Innovation, Digitalisation and Energy, Prof. Dr. Andreas Pinkwart, and received applications from over 60 young companies from North Rhine-Westphalia.

As part of the eurobits security summit 2022, the eurobits women academy (ewa) workshop will take place this Friday at the GDATA Campus in Bochum.
