We will publish the results of the second Public Value Atlas Germany on May 21, 2019. 137 companies and organisations from different sectors and industries will be evaluated and compared by approximately 15,000 participating persons with regard to their contribution to the common good in Germany.

VW is the leader of the ranking list of companies in the Public Value Atlas. The data collection for the Public Value Atlas took place between July and August 2015, before the VW group’s manipulation of exhaust emission measurements was uncovered. Between 1 and 10 October, a second survey was conducted after the event with a total of 777 respondents to again measure VW’s public value contribution and that of a further four companies from the automotive industry, as well as Bosch.
