BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt

We believe that every human being can make a positive contribution to lasting beneficial change. The individual commitment of leaders in particular is a powerful lever of change. Those who recognize their position of power and choose to act boldly out of responsibility to others demonstrate a unique and deeply necessary form of leadership.

Through its leadership programs , global Responsible Leaders Network, accelerator program, and impact investments, the BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt aims to promote responsible leadership and inspire leaders to work towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda.

While the 2030 Agenda lays the foundations for a more peaceful, just, and sustainable future, the collective commitments encompassed by the seventeen global goals would not be possible without leaders who set the agenda in motion and translate it into action. Now more than ever before we need leadership that serves people, promotes prosperity, and regenerates the planet. The engagement of leaders who work for positive change is therefore integral to creating meaningful impact in organizations and institutional structures across the globe.
