Social commitment – our foundations
Social commitment has a long tradition at CAD Schroer. Our campaigns and projects do their bit to help children and young people all over the world. At CAD Schroer, it is part of our self-image to support social projects and help people. But topics such as climate protection or integration are also omnipresent due to their topicality. As an internationally active software company, CAD Schroer has been supporting selected local or international projects and aid campaigns for many years.
Cultural projects – Culture means diversity
CAD Schroer is the main sponsor of the moers festival global cultural event in 2021
The moers festival is not just an international music festival known worldwide for its alternative and experimental music styles beyond the mainstream, it also stands for innovation and is constantly breaking new artistic and digital ground. In 2021, the festival climbed another rung on the innovation ladder. As one of the main sponsors, CAD Schroer supported the moers festival with its virtual and augmented reality technologies and digitalisation solutions in the implementation of the innovative concepts.

Art exhibition
CAD Schroer supports with art and sound in virtual space
Exhibition by Anica Blagaj and Franco Melis – People with medical-scientific evolutionary leaps. The interplay of digitalisation, artificial intelligence and genetic research yields a lot of possibilities. But how do humans as living beings cope with these changes? An exhibition provides the answers.
Education projects
VR school project – pupils recreate their own school in virtual reality
CAD Schroer has always supported educational and research institutions by making our CAD software solutions available to pupils and students free of charge. Licences for the M4 DRAFTING 2D/3D CAD system and the M4 PLANT 3D factory and plant design software can be requested for educational and research use. We enable schools and universities to equip complete training rooms with our software without charge. An investment in education in which CAD Schroer is very happy to participate. Find out more…
Better access to education for children and young people
“Since I got my bike, my school life has changed tremendously. I have better grades now and my way to school is so much easier and faster,” says Aleni.
Aleni represents millions of girls in Africa whose journeys to school every morning and evening are almost impossible. In addition, domestic responsibilities and cultural conventions are a major obstacle to further education for girls. As part of World Bicycle Relief’s education programme, schoolgirls like Aleni are given a bicycle to help them better manage their journey to school. When they are mobile, they go to school more regularly, learn more and increase their chances of successfully completing school. A good education opens doors, makes people independent, and enables them to develop their own talents.
Education is an essential prerequisite for a self-determined life. CAD Schroer therefore wants to create basic conditions for access to education, and supports children and young people in disadvantaged regions of the world with a wide variety of projects to this end.
Climate protection
A transparent, clear corporate structure and committed employees ensure the responsible use of energy and raw material resources in order to minimise emissions and waste, and protect the life-sustaining elements of earth, air, water and light.
With the construction of our new headquarters in 2013, a sustainable overall concept was developed for the company that makes our claim tangible for both customers and employees: a sustainable office building with a special focus on energy efficiency and resource conservation.
CO2 footprint
Transport researchers at the Technical University of Dresden have determined that Germany could save almost three million tonnes of CO2 annually if only every second car journey of less than five kilometres was made by bicycle instead. CAD Schroer promotes cycling among its employees with various campaigns and attractive incentives.
