The Leister Foundation collaborates with various organizations and institutions, such as the "ETH Zurich Foundation" to support research and education at ETH Zurich, and with "EPFL – École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne" through a student support program. Other partners include the "Swiss Science Center Technorama" in Winterthur, the "Swiss Youth in Science Foundation," the "NaTechEducation" association, and many others.
As the initiator of the "tüftelPark Pilatus" in the canton of Obwalden, the Leister Foundation has been committed since 2016 to establishing a creative workshop aimed at promoting young talent in technical professions. With ongoing support and the "Leister Tüftel Prize," we continue to encourage more and more students to engage with technical topics.
In addition, the Leister Foundation supports expeditions to geographically and logistically challenging regions, enabling scientists to conduct their research in these remote areas.
