They key topics for the panel were: The Maybach history and heritage, the future and the vision of the Maybach brand going forward.
“Maybach Story, as the ultimate automobile creator, goes back to the origin of the Maybach family and to the essence of “quality made in Germany.” “This archetype, where those who made something from nothin, established and transferred generational wisdom and then formed a culture of creativity and innovation around it.”, says Ulrich Schmid-Maybach. Uli emphasized the relevance of mentorship and how it has a long-lasting impact. The Maybach Foundation was established in 2005 is a nonprofit organization that honors the lifetime work of Wilhelm and Karl Maybach. The next generations of innovators will be molded proactively with mentorship groups implemented by the Maybach Foundation. “Your best future is helping someone find theirs.”,confirms Uli Maybach – as it explains the deep purpose behind this nonprofit and what it enables.
