Promoting young talent in the printing industry is a long-held tradition within Flint Group. One example of this is the close co-operation it has with the Stuttgart Media University, where diverse joint projects are undertaken. For almost 60 years Flint Group has presented the K+E Prize to promote excellence in the field – with the biannual award being presented to the best master thesis in printing technology.
In addition to this, Flint Group also enjoys excellent relationships with universities and institutes in China, such as the Technical University in Xi’an or the Beijing Institute of Graphic Communication, where scholarships and prizes are awarded and practical training programmes in the company are offered.
At the beginning of August 2013, three professors from these Chinese partners visited Flint Group in Stuttgart (Germany). Professor Xu Wencai, Vice President of the Beijing Insitute of Graphic Communication, Professor Cao Congjun, Deputy Dean of the Technical University Xi’an and Ms Hengzhen Diao from the Stuttgart Media University used the opportunity to learn more about the company’s product portfolio and the latest technologies used to produce flexo printing forms.
