Does shipping offshore wind power to onshore grids make sense? A Japanese start-up says yes it does.

Energy-efficient wing-in-ground vehicles as new interurban means of transportation are planned to zip across the sea on air cushions.

A modern world without steel is hardly conceivable – but steel without CO₂ emissions is. These are the technologies to achieve change.

It’s one of the world’s most important inventions and has been making the everyday lives of humans easier for nearly 6,000 years: the wheel.

Time is in scarce supply – all the more reason to use it efficiently. These tricks help you make more time for yourself on the job and after hours.

Friction-optimized headwind vehicles drive into the wind faster than the wind blows against them.

Whether hybrid or fully electric, whether 48 or 800 volts, Schaeffler’s modular powertrain portfolio has the right solution for any e-car.

As an innovation leader, Schaeffler is already researching the technologies of tomorrow together with universities, institutes, and research facilities.

The world is in a state of technological change and this is also true for motorsport. How can the high-tech racing categories take part in shaping the the transformation of mobility?

Some gamers rise to the highest spheres of electronic sports as celebrated heroes. Sim-Racing, in which Schaeffler is involved, is one of the increasingly professional e-sports disciplines.

When looking to the stars and exploring planets, black holes and other distant celestial bodies, the first thing to do is find a high vantage point.

From an automotive hot spot to a mobility hub – after its bankruptcy, will Detroit manage to resurrect itself as a North American high-tech center? The prospects are positive.

When business and science successfully work together, hands-on knowledge from the industrial world is combined with academic findings. But how do such university-business partnerships succeed?

Schaeffler’s success story is closely linked to its own production landscapes. Without the equipment from its in-house mechanical engineering department, Schaeffler’s plants would stop operating.

Google and IBM are working on quantum computers that can perform complex computations a lot faster than the world’s fastest supercomputers. Now, what’s in it for us?

Ideas need people who believe in them and make them reality. Four examples described illustrate how Schaeffler manages to transfer innovative stimuli into successful projects.

Living with a disability entails major challenges – modern technology can assist in managing them. But even people not challenged by disabilities can benefit from such innovations.

The challenge to Africa: A young tech-savvy generation is surging ahead, aiming to change Africa’s image of a backward continent. However, large hurdles remain.

Resourcefulness, sharp intellect, and enormous willpower: for centuries, bold women have been stunning the world with pioneering acts and causing patriarchal walls to crumble.

In the depths of the ocean, the vast expanse of the sky, or the boundlessness of the desert. Many of these challenges were only mastered with the help of technical instruments and tools.

Rail transportation had its heyday in many parts of the world up until the middle of the 20th century but was subsequently neglected. The return to the railroad confronts Brazil with major challenges.

Superheroes and their superpowers: When it comes to acceleration, Superman, Flash & company push the boundaries of imagination. “tomorrow” shows what high-speed rides these heroes are capable of.

No other industrialized country has evolved from a developing into a highly industrialized nation at the breathtaking pace that Korea has seen.

No other artist and engineer who passed away a long time ago fascinates us as much as Leonardo da Vinci. However, innovation prowess was the result of very specific principles of success.

CEO, family man, driving force – Dr. Georg Schaeffler would have been 100 years old this year. A portrait of a man brimming with vigor.

“Next Exit: The Future” is the title which the renowned science journalist Ranga Yogeshwar selected for his new book. In an interview, Ranga Yogeshwar answers the most pressing questions.

The 2016 Nobel Prize in chemistry was awarded for the fundamentals of building complex nanomachines. Following the early eighties, this new field of research has since seen rapid development.

Energy equals mass multiplied by the speed of light squared. This physics equation marks a breakthrough, as well-known as the man who first wrote it down 112 years ago: Albert Einstein.
