Our History

More than 30 years of "Work Hard, Play Hard"

The meeting in Darmstadt in February 1990 is usually referred to as the first of a sequence of meetings that led to the foundation of ESTIEM. In 1988 I joined the VWI student group at the TH Darmstadt. A year later we organised the usual student events with companies and lectures at the university and where asking ourselves what else we could do – what could be something new? In this discussion the leader of our student group, Arnold Paetzold, threw in the thought of an international student event.

our comfort zone. ESTIEM's members are proactive students that always give 100%. We encourage entrepreneurial spirit among students by gathering and exchanging experiences and best practices.
