Welcome to the Catalyst Newsletter!

In the course of the sustainability transformation, SMEs are increasingly confronted with growing requirements from politics and society. However, it is anything but easy to stay on top of things. So how can this rising complexity be addressed? CATALYST aims to answer this demand.


CATALYST is an EU-funded project that offers a wide range of vocational education and training (VET) in the context of sustainability management.

Moreover, CATALYST will develop a European learning platform and establish a corresponding network of businesses, education and science.


The European CATALYST Centre of Vocational Excellence will offer a wide range of online and offline courses enabling skill building in areas such as Sustainable Leadership, Sustainable Business Models as well as Organisational Development.


Apart from knowledge transfer, CATALYST facilitates an international network exchange to build interdisciplinary partnerships, launch innovative pilot projects and create synergies in order to apply acquired knowledge directly into practice.


CATALYST supports organisations in positioning strategically and future-oriented while providing clarity and guidance.


Stay tuned for the next newsletters to learn more and sign up for our offers. We are looking forward to engaging with you!
