Session 1: Social Responsibility – A Consistent Factor Now and in the Future of Manufacturing.

In session 1 the BMW Group invites you to join the conversation about why sustainable strategy means to take on social responsibility. The BMW Group’s aim to become the most sustainable car manufacturer does not only apply to produce a vehicle with little or none CO2 emissions, but to care for every person working in the company and for society. In this session, BMW Group managers responsible for CSR at the Headquarters and at the plants in South Africa and Mexico will introduce two projects that are driving social impact in their regions. Why do they do this? Because People is a company’s most valuable resource.
