The association Partner der Mannheimer Betriebswirtschaftslehre e.V. was founded by the Faculty of Business Administration at the University of Mannheim and the Mannheim Business School in order to connect researchers and managers from major companies and to promote the exchange between academic research and practice. The aim is to strengthen the faculty and the Mannheim business school through idealistic and financial support in research, teaching and infrastructure and to increase their national and international visibility. FUCHS therefore supports this association in order to continue developing the Mannheim Business School into a leading institution in the education sector.
