Building C4Where ideas flourish

Ideas need space to thrive. And they thrive best where people come together. With its renovated C4 building in Laupheim, Uhlmann has created the ideal environment for innovations. Let‘s take a peek inside.

Since the summer of 2022, for some 260 employees of Uhlmann Pac-Systeme in Laupheim, collab­o­rating on projects in inter­dis­ci­pli­nary teams has never been easier. The ideal condi­tions for this were created during the one-year reno­va­tion of the existing C4 building: from meeting rooms and focus zones to tele­phone booths and an elevator to the assembly area.

Great things in busi­ness are never done by one person; they’re done by a team of people.

In the modern working world, the prime focus is on exchange. And this was some­thing CEO Prof. Dr.-Ing. Matthias Niemeyer made a point of stressing at the inau­gu­ra­tion in September, when he quoted Apple founder Steve Jobs as saying: “Great things in busi­ness are never done by one person; they’re done by a team of people.”
