50 Years ProMinent

50 Years ProMinent
50 Years ProMinent The first electronic solenoid driven metering pump ProMinent electronic How the principle of power
crosses all boundaries

50 years of ProMinent is the representation of 50 years of ups and downs, a time full of idealism and
obstacles, but also a time of wonderful successes. The beginnings were humble. We had a head full of
ideas and a determination to turn them into new technologies.

Enthusiasm is a strong driving force, as are the people who share this enthusiasm.
Continuously moving forward, thinking ahead, re-inventing technology - that is what ProMinent stands for.
Our inventive prowess has written corporate history, connects the people here and enables us to
continuously grow. This makes me especially proud and, for that reason, I would like to extend my personal
thanks to every single employee.

A brief ramble through the past 50 years relates our journey from being a small Heidelberg-based
company to becoming the world market leader and also outlines where the future will take us.
Enjoy the read!

Yours

A speech in honour of the founder was given by Dr. h.c. Erwin Teufel, Former Minister President of Baden-Württemberg.

Heidelberg Kongresshaus

The German Association of Chambers of Industry and Commerce was founded in the Heidelberg Kongresshaus in 1918 and today it plays host to innovations networks, international conferences and Annual General Meetings of global corporations. And of course it is also an ideal venue for celebrating momentous events - the 50th anniversary of ProMinent.
