Meet Companies. Build Your Network. Discover Careers.

Global Company Connect is a series of interactive sessions that brings researchers and students together with international companies, organizations, and practice partners from different sectors and professional fields. Researchers and students have the opportunity to meet professionals, exchange knowledge, network and collaborate, explore different industries, gain practical insights, and discover how academic knowledge and research are applied in practice. Through direct exchange with organizations/companies working in Germany and internationally, researchers and students can explore potential cooperation in research, teaching, professional practice, and internships, while learning about career pathways, current challenges, and emerging opportunities across different fields.

About German Sparkassenstiftung

The German Sparkassenstiftung for International Cooperation (DSIK) is the development-policy arm of the German Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe. It works internationally to support financial inclusion and strengthen local financial institutions.

Its approach transfers practical experience from the German Sparkassen model while developing solutions adapted to local contexts. DSIK works with partners including financial institutions, ministries, universities, associations, and other organizations.

In Jordan, DSIK is involved in initiatives addressing areas such as financial inclusion, financial education, digital literacy, entrepreneurship, and employment, including support for vulnerable groups.
In Ghana, DSIK supports private and financial sector development, including improved access to finance for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), and works with credit unions and microfinance institutions to strengthen sustainable and increasingly digital financial services.
