In tomorrow’s world, the need for carbon neutral energy and carbon sinks will increase, the self-sufficiency of raw materials and other materials will be emphasised, and environmental impacts must be taken into account more strongly. Technology and knowledge enable new innovations.
With our strategy, we are developing solutions to accelerate the transition to a sustainable carbon neutral world. We are a pioneer in research into the availability of mineral raw materials and the circular economy, as well as in promoting reliability of supply. We promote the sustainable use of groundwater and the sustainability of mining operations, accelerate the increase in the proportion of low-carbon energy and produce information for the benefit of the sustainable use of the environment. We apply high-level geophysics and geoscience information in a crosscutting manner. As a result, we produce customer solutions, science and innovation, and new geoscience information.
Our values are the cornerstone of our operations. Expanding the funding base and using technology are important for achieving the goals of the strategy period. People are at the heart of our strategy. We work for the generations of the day after tomorrow, and we want to create a human-centric working life. This means that current and future GTK people belong to a community of the best experts in their field, in which a coaching culture, continuously developing skills, smoothness of work and cooperation are fostered.
We work for Earth and for Us.
