Entrepreneurial success requires an intact environment. In developing and newly industrialising countries in particular, factors like legal certainty, planning certainty, functional training facilities, reliable subcontractors, healthy employees and good environmental conditions are decisive. These are core areas of GTZ’s work.

What is often seen as standard in industrialised nations poses a challenge in many markets of the future. As a result, more and more companies recognise that it pays to take direct responsibility for the environment of their core business.
Those who invest farsightedly in people and the environment contribute to sustainable development and secure their own commercial success. With its worldwide network of experts, GTZ is the right partner in this.

There are various forms of cooperation:
Private sector companies can commission us directly either with planning and implementing projects, or with packages of services defined specifically for their needs.
Companies can also cooperate with us in current development projects. In development partnerships – better known as Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) – we act on behalf on the German Federal Government and inputs and risks are shared with our partners.
