We grow with our region. Through sponsorship, we give back to the communities that inspire and support us.

Social
At SNP, we believe that businesses have a responsibility to contribute positively to the communities in which they operate. From advocating for children and families to promoting inclusion and equal opportunities, our social sponsorships reflect our commitment to strengthening communities and supporting those who need it.
Sports
SNP is a major player in sports sponsorship in the Rhine-Neckar region. We see sports sponsorship as part of our social commitment with the aim of promoting team spirit, fairness, and sporting excellence – values that also fit in with our corporate culture. SNP uses sports sponsorship not only for brand presence, but also as a platform for innovation, digitalization, and social engagement. We therefore see ourselves as a modern partner in sports – both on the playing field and in the digital arena.
SNP dome
We've been a proud sponsor and namesake of the SNP dome in Heidelberg since 2020. It offers young athletes a modern training and playing facility. The SNP dome can accommodate around 5,000 spectators, and it has become an important location in the Heidelberg area for both sports and cultural events. We are pleased to be able to help make this experience possible and hope that our commitment will encourage children and young people to take part in more sports.
In addition to school and club sports (around 260 days a year), the SNP dome is also the venue for the MLP Academics Heidelberg (basketball).

As a global software company headquartered in Heidelberg, SNP is proud to support the MLP Academics Heidelberg as a gold partner. The partnership stands for regional ties, passion for sports, and social commitment.
With the SNP dome as the home venue of the MLP Academics, we are sending a clear signal of our commitment. The modern arena is a place of encounter, emotion, and inspiration – for fans, partners, and employees alike.
SNP & FC-Astoria Walldorf
SNP is a Silver Partner of the FC-Astoria Walldorf soccer club. The sponsorship is part of our regional commitment and serves to strengthen our local presence and promote sports in the Rhine-Neckar region. The partnership is part of a broad network of companies that support the club both financially and technologically.
FC-Astoria Walldorf plays in the Regionalliga Südwest, the fourth-highest league in German soccer. It is named after Walldorf-born entrepreneur John Jacob Astor. The club attaches great importance to promoting popular sports and talent, as well as regional ties.

We are an official club partner of VfB Stuttgart. With more than 120,000 members and a successful history, the traditional club is one of the best in Europe. Youth work is also another hallmark of the club. In this partnership, we support VfB Stuttgart's engagement in several socially relevant areas, including basic education, the promotion of women, and inclusion in soccer. The most important initiatives:
Together with EnBW, VfB Stuttgart has launched a new primary school project. The aim is to promote education, sustainability, and social responsibility. As an example, the project includes, the annual sustainability game day at the MHP Arena.
The VfB Education Rally is an innovative education and sports project for 7th grade students in Stuttgart. In a school year competition, students collect points through workshops and activities on topics such as social media & digital media, career orientation, exercise & health, environment & sustainability, fairness, respect & inclusion.

SNP & the swift
The swift is not only part of our logo, but also represents the local origins of our company. That’s why we are proud to support NABU Heidelberg (Naturschutzbund, Nature Conservation Association) and Mauerseglerhilfe APUS Association (Swift Aid) which are both local organizations supporting swifts in the Heidelberg region. Their goal is to restore, preserve and create new nesting sites for swifts. In addition, they provide professional care for injured and vulnerable birds and release them back into the wild after successful rehabilitation.
