Sensors and measurement technology are enabling technologies. We interlink technologies, skills and people across the boundaries of organizations and industries.
Together, we develop and implement smart, sustainable and trustworthy sensor technology in Bavaria.
As the mouthpiece of the sensor industry, we present Bavarian technology solutions at relevant trade fairs such as the SENSOR+TEST, congresses and as part of international delegation trips and visits.

Sustainability
We are not just a network for the high-tech industry that promotes the development of sustainable sensor technologies.
We also actively take responsibility for the environment and society as part of our activities.
Sustainability is a fundamental value that extends to all areas of our work in the sensor ecosystem.
Our mission includes initiating and supporting research and development projects.
We place particular emphasis on projects and initiatives that pursue resource-conserving and efficient approaches to protect the environment, climate and emissions.
When organizing our trade fair appearances, events and seminars, we take care to choose environmentally friendly venues, support local resources and reduce waste to a minimum.
We advocate the use of public transportation and provide recycling options in order to leave a positive ecological footprint together.
As part of "agile sprint learning", our team regularly puts itself and its knowledge to the test and reflects on its individual and collective awareness of the various facets of sustainability. Our goal is continuous improvement so that we can also serve as a role model for other networks for consciously sustainable action in cluster management.
