Dear Member of the SGroup Community,

On behalf of the Executive Committee and the Office staff, I would like to wish everyone a Happy and Joyful Holiday Season and a Prosperous New Year!

Despite the very challenging year we all had, the SGroup Community can be proud of its achievements in 2022, with highlights to the return to the in-person Annual Meetings, the launch of our new website and the creation of new initiatives such as the PhD Training and Competition, the Projects Café and the International Staff Week.

The success of such initiatives was only possible because of your devoted and committed personal engagement, which resulted in a very significant participation of most of our members.

We genuinely hope that 2023 brings peace to the World and new cooperation opportunities, so that we may continue to walk, side by side, towards a more engaged and responsible Higher Education Area.

May your Holiday Season and the New Year be filled with joy, peace, happiness and many successes!

Kind regards,

Arnim Heinemann

SGroup President
