About Prof. Dr. Werner-Petersen Stiftung

Prof. Dr. Werner-Petersen Stiftung is a Kiel-based foundation that primarily supports education, science, research, technology, and culture, with a clear bias toward early-career talent and technical/natural-science fields. Its giving is especially visible in Schleswig-Holstein and the Baltic Sea region, where it backs student prizes, scholarships, research infrastructure, innovation transfer, and selected cultural projects. The foundation also appears to make strategic, high-profile investments in university excellence appointments and applied research collaborations between academia and industry.
