SDG 16 – Peace, justice and strong institutions (photo)

The companies of voestalpine AG engage with the needs of local communities at each of their locations by supporting diverse projects and organizations. The broad spectrum of activities ranges from social issues to culture, and sport.

voestalpine often steps in as a major donor when natural disasters cause significant damage to communities close to its locations. Most recently the Group assisted employees and local residents at the plant in Corpus Christi, Texas, after the devastating impact of Hurricane Harvey.

In the cultural sector, in addition to a series of regional activities the focus currently lies in supporting the Cleveland Orchestra, Vienna’s Burgtheater, and the “Klassik am Dom” concert series in Linz.

Another priority is supporting e-mobility, in particular by cooperating with Formula E. Starting with the 2018/2019 season, voestalpine will be a partner to the ABB FIA Formula E Championship in its European races for an initial period of two years. The world’s first fully-electric street racing series will be run in European cities including Paris, Berlin, Rome, and Monte Carlo as the “voestalpine European Races”.
