VP Bank is further expanding its social commitment by entering into a partnership with the Laureus Foundation Switzerland

The Laureus Foundation Switzerland is one of eight national foundations worldwide belonging to the global Sport For Good Foundation. It initiates and supports programmes that use sport to promote the personal, social, and emotional development of children and young people. The foundation collaborates with numerous Swiss sporting greats from various disciplines, who act as Laureus ambassadors and serve as role models for children and young people.

Partnership with a clear social impact

With its new partnership, VP Bank is underlining the important work of the foundation. Urs Monstein, CEO of VP Bank Group, says: "This collaboration enables us to support young people through the power of sport, while strengthening our commitment in this area. It is an example of a partnership for progress. The foundation makes a valuable contribution, and we are delighted to be joining forces with them."

As part of the partnership, VP Bank is planning exclusive meetings and events with Laureus ambassadors, offering clients and employees special insights into the world of top-class sport.

Promoting young talent within VP Bank

VP Bank also supports its own apprentices who participate in competitive sports. Thanks to a sports agreement supplementing the apprenticeship contract with regard to cooperation between the training company, vocational school, and top-level sport, they can optimally combine education and training — a prime example of a strong work-life balance.
