Working together for a sustainable economy in Wiesbaden: The 8th CSR Practice Day on November 26 offers companies, administration and civil society a platform to exchange ideas and learn from each other.

The 8th Practical Day at the Wiesbaden Chamber of Industry and Commerce will mark the festive conclusion of the CSR Regio.Net Year 2025. It is open and free of charge to anyone interested in responsible and sustainable business.
In 2025, the program focuses on strong impulses for a responsible and sustainable economy. Reinhard Schneider, owner of Werner & Mertz, will show how consistent ecological responsibility can become a model for success and why it requires more courage and clarity in the corporate world.
