BOSCH

I want to start my präsentation with one question:
What is Bosch?

That is Bosch (Folie)
Bosch is a GmbH (Gemeinschaft mit beschränkter Haftung). That means it isn`t, like Siemens or Daimler (which are AG), at the purse.

Most of you probobly think:
Bosch what a unusfull company. Does it generally produce anything? Or did they ever invented something usefull?
I only say if there was no Robert Bosch we wouldn't drive cars, scoters and all the other stuff which we drive today. Then Robert Bosch, the founder of the Robert Bosch GmbH, invented the sparking plug.

Let us come to spheres where Bosch is aktiv:
Automotive-technic (biggest spheres 62%)
Automation-technic
Metal-technic
Packing-technic
Power-tools
Thermo-technic
Household appliances
Security system
So now you know generally what Bosch is and we can look at some important numbers of the year 2004.
Returns: 40 007 000 000 € (Bilion)
The returns are split up under the Robert Bosch foundation, the Robert Bosch family and of course in investigations.
But there is still a rest of 2 578 000 000 €.
Workers: 110 569 (Germany)
131 779 (other countries)
Ok now I want to present you some important datas from the Bosch History.
