In November, mst moves into its new headquarters in Allach, in the north-west of Munich. There, on the former site of the Diamalt-Werke The Malt - a historic, but soon to be ultra-modern building complex that could hardly be better placed in terms of infrastructure.
For mst, the move to Allach means more than just a change of location - it is the beginning of a new era. In the best sense of New Work we will redefine the way we work at mst. An important role in this is played by 1000 Satellites: The established coworking brand has 1,500m2 Office space in The Malt - and will give us unprecedented flexibility in the future.
Lena Jentsch, Managing Direktor, mst Holding & mst group:
"The move to The Malt is another milestone in mst's recent growth story. The flexibility of the space and the modernity of the surroundings fit in very well with the face and character of the new mst."
Barbara Schindler, HR Manager, mst group:
"Especially with regard to the overall attractiveness of an employer brand, the mix of a remote working culture and this new work location with a community character is very important for retaining existing employees and inspiring new employees for mst - and The Malt is ideally suited to support us in this."
David Ullrich, Managing Director Sales, Marketing & Digital, mst group:
"We are at the beginning of an ultra-fast-moving AI world, and loft environments steeped in history are undoubtedly a very exciting environment in which to feel the coming, very strong changes even more intensively. The industrial age meets digital co-working - an office environment as a kind of time machine. The perfect motivation!"
We are looking forward to the new location, the new spirit - and the new mst!
Our new address as of November:
mst group GmbH
Am Münchfeld 59
80999 München
mst is becoming increasingly international: from summer 2024, we will be able to provide VAT-compliant invoicing in 6 more countries, adapted to the country-specific tax guidelines - once again demonstrating our potential as a full-service provider.
In terms of VAT compliance, we are setting new standards and offering our customers a real benefit: a single framework agreement with mst group GmbH - and it doesn't matter whether the client is based in Spain, we as a service provider in Germany and the participants in the USA.
We are starting with the following countries:
And many more will follow.
Rated as outstanding by those who really count - our employees.
We are delighted to have received the Top Company 2024 award, which only 5% of all companies on kununu achieve.
We will continue to do everything we can to ensure the satisfaction of our employees and are always happy to welcome new recruits. Become a part of this WE and shape the future with us.
We are (once again) forming the future!
True to our claim and with a lot of heart and soul in the preparation, we eagerly awaited the start of the MBF Bildungsgipfel.
For almost 2 days, mst employees together with nearly 170 corporate learning experts from well-known major brands and institutions from the DACH region advanced and prepared the future of corporate learning.
Indeed, the 50th anniversary summit of the Munich Bildungsgipfel had set itself the goal of simulating the world in 2044:
- How will corporate learning shape and influence our lives and work in 20 years?
- What could the value contribution of L&D within companies and in society then look like in concrete terms?
To find out, the education innovators and experts present "locked themselves away" in 6 thematically different future labs to jointly create knowledge synergies for inferential scenarios:
Finally, at the end of the event, a manifesto on continuing education in the workplace answered the question of what we need to do today to reach our goal in 2044.
As event organizer of the event we were looking forward to 2 exciting days, together with our co-sponsors IHK (provided premises in the IHK headquarters) as well as BSH (dinner) and of course the great MBF team around their CEO Kai Liebert.
Let´s Lab!
USA, Mexico, China...and now UK! The internationalization and establishment of new mst locations goes into the next round.
Among the TOP-3 countries with the highest training expenditures in Europe and home to large corporate companies, the UK can now also benefit from mst's highly flexible training partnering models. Our local, already existing UK trainer network will certainly help us to quickly gain a foothold in the beautiful island state. Based in Birmingham, in the middle of the south of England, where mst UK will be headquartered.
Left-hand traffic, here we come!
Start-ups are certainly among the most exciting events in the development of companies, for many reasons.
On the one hand, they are a clear signal both internally and externally of a strong desire for change and growth in markets that offer great potential for this. On the other hand, they are also a source of opportunities for all those employees who are always looking for new challenges. And last but not least, they form the foundation for a value-based, diverse and inclusive company through the addition of new cultural perspectives, ideas and talents. In short: start-ups are obligation, motivation, opportunity at the same time. And it is precisely for these reasons that we as mst have decided to start up - in countries that we have had our sights set on for our long-term strategy for some time now.
And because we find our start-ups incredibly exciting, we've made a little clip about them called "Sometimes you really don't know what to say".
Roll the film and have fun! mst goes overseas!
Investing intensively in compliance and customer satisfaction is an ongoing process at mst, and yet there exist some milestones: certifications and the very intensive audit processes that go with them.
And so, at the beginning of the year, we are proud to announce to our customers, partners and new interested parties that we have passed both the ISO 9001:2015 recertification (quality management), which is due every 3 years, and the TISAX certification (information security), which was initiated by the VDA (Association of the German Automotive Industry) on the basis of ISO 27001, with very good results.
Certifications and compliance with measurable management, employee and equipment standards are by no means a bureaucratic monster for us. On the contrary, they are a very important part of our entrepreneurial attitude and corporate culture. Certifications make us fit for the present and future of the digital age and give us competitive advantages in several areas, such as cybersecurity, employee recruiting, new customer acquisition, and innovative capability. To sum it up: certifications are an integral part of mst's quality DNA, which motivates and drives us forward every day.
And so we have already targeted the next mst certification. Stay tuned! ... 🙂
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank the accompanying compliance agencies for their intensive, trusting and good cooperation:

2021 is a year in which community and solidarity are more important than anything else - that's how we feel about it and that's how we want to live it in our special responsibility as a company that has learned to cope well with this Corona pandemic!
For this reason, we are once again donating our budget for customer christmas gifts this year - and this is already a tradition at mst - to organizations that help people and animals in need. We are very pleased to provide
and say "Thank you!" to all the volunteers for all their quiet, sacrificial work in the service of our society.
These donations - and in the end a correspondingly available budget for christmas presents - are only made possible by our fantastic customers and every single contact there. Our customers enable us to make a meaningful impact in their world every day and to become constantly better, faster and more efficient for the benefit of all. And at the same time, our customers remind us to be self-critical, humble and grateful in our daily work. Thank you, dear mst customers, for the great cooperation in 2021 and for all the important lessons of our partnership.
We wish you all a peaceful, certainly again thoughtful and hopefully energizing christmas season. Merry christmas and a blessed new year 2022!
We are looking forward to meet you again soon. Stay healthy!
Your mst

Official handover of the gifts on site on December 12, 2021 with David Ullrich (mst), Alfred Holderied (Deputy Director of Nursing), Lena Jentsch (mst) and Professor Dr. med. Markus M. Lerch (Medical Director and Chairman of the Board of LMU Hospital in Großhadern). (f.l.t.r.)
mst buys appreciation gifts for Covid nursing staff in Großhadern
There are times to do the right thing!
Sure, we too briefly considered pulling off our christmas party with a 2G++ rule. After all, the anticipation was higher than ever this year! But as the drama of the 4th corona wave continued, we quickly came up with the right idea: we'll call off the party and instead buy appreciation and christmas gifts for all those who are currently trying to save Covid patients' lives to the point of total exhaustion.
We are therefore very pleased to donate our entire mst Christmas party budget to the medical and nursing staff of the Munich Covid intensive care unit at the Großhadern Clinic - and have packed a total of 240 gifts from it, as a little encouragement during this extremely stressful time.
On behalf of the mst group, Lena Jentsch/CEO and David Ullrich/CSMO would like to express our gratitude that we have such great, competent and unconditionally working doctors and nurses in Germany. A thousand times thank you! Stay healthy and continue to be so committed to all of us!
By the way: The fact that we chose the hospital in Großhadern is no coincidence! Our shareholder Katrin Strauss had learned and worked there before her time at mst, and so another circle of gratitude closes here as well.
For the first time in its history, the mst group will participate as an active exhibition partner at one of the major continuing education trade fairs. We are therefore very pleased to be able to present ourselves live on site with a competent team at the L&Dpro trade fair in the MVG Museum Munich on 30.09.2021.
For our specially designed booth, we have chosen a targeted trade fair motto that is intended to refer to the special challenges of Corona for HR and L&D departments: "Outsourcing education creates resources". With this motto, we raise awareness of the added value of partnering, especially in training administration, and show how Managed Training Services (MTS) can be used to "free up" scarce resources in HR development for the acute topics of New Learning.
As much as we have come to appreciate the online trade shows of the last weeks and months - we are very happy to finally be able to have direct conversations with like-minded people, our customers and new prospects for our portfolio at a real trade show again and to get a lot of new inspiration.
