The Klaus Tschira Stiftung pursues its objectives by conducting projects of its own but also awards subsidies after approval of applications. To foster and sustain work on selected topics, the Stiftung has also founded its own affi liates. Klaus Tschira’s commitment to this objective was honored in 1999 with the “Deutscher Stifterpreis,” the award conferred by the National Association of German Foundations. The Klaus Tschira Stiftung is located in Heidelberg and has its head offi ce in the Villa Bosch (Fig. 16.1 ), once the residence of Carl Bosch, a Nobel laureate in chemistry. www.klaus-tschira-stiftung.de Fig. A.2 Villa Bosch, the head offi ce of the Klaus Tschira Stiftung, Heidelberg, Germany. © Peter Meusburger The Klaus Tschira Stiftung
