What does Infinity lobby for?

In doing so, we follow an approach that guarantees that our sustainable footprint in the society is being maximized. For this purpose, we regularly organize lectures and panel discussions with representatives from the industry, politics and society. Furthermore, we educate our member on the topics of sustainability and entrepreneurship through several workshops and trainings. The transfer of know-how takes place internally between different members, as well as with experienced social entrepreneurs and other representatives from the industry.

Additionally, we offer our members the opportunity to work on existing or create new projects.
