Sponsoring
Taking responsibility on a global level
At Sika we regard our sponsorship commitments as a long-term collaboration in the form of partnerships, from which both sides benefit and to which both sides contribute. With our sponsoring activities, we want to make a useful contribution to the society and the environment in which we live. Therefore Sika sponsoring on a global level focuses on social, educational and environmental issues as well as on sports.
In remembrance of Romuald Burkard, who represented the third generation of Sika's founder family Winkler, the Romuald Burkard Foundation was created in 2005. Through this fund the country organizations in developing countries support social and ecological projects to promote self-help locally.
