The Institute for Management and Economic Research was commissioned by the magazine FOCUS-MONEY and its institute DEUTSCHLAND TEST to conduct a study of the 20,000 German companies with the highest number of employees. Criteria such as training success, apprenticeship ratio, remuneration and additional offers for apprentices were examined. Baden-Württemberg-based ETO MAGNETIC GmbH was able to score at all levels and ranked third in the category of "automotive suppliers" among Germany's best training companies in 2021.
ALFRIED, a pioneering new project funded with over 11 million euros by the German Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI), has started at the Friedrichshafen test area. ALFRIED stands for "Automated and Connected Driving in logistics at the Friedrichshafen test field." A consortium of 11 project partners, including the ETO GRUPPE, has joined forces until the end of June 2023 to optimize the increasing inner-city transport of goods and factory traffic by trucks with the help of Automated and Connected Driving (ACD) as part of the project. The city of Friedrichshafen is an associated partner in the project. The aim of ALFRIED is to develop a comprehensive mobility system to reduce the transport of goods between company plants. The aim is to save journeys, reduce emissions and relieve traffic in cities.

The TUfast Eco Team is a team of highly motivated students of the TU Munich, who develop autonomously driving and highly efficient vehicles. The focus is on the development of innovative solutions through interdisciplinary cooperation. In this year's project called muc019+ the newest car was equipped with an autonomous system. With the support of ETO MAGNETIC as one of the cooperation partners, the TUfast Eco Team was able to equip the electric car with new functionalities such as ultrasonic sensors. These enable independent driving without human intervention, avoiding obstacles or parking.
