Community

Maptek sponsors organisations, events and activities related to the communities in which we work and live.

Corporate social responsibility activities may include supporting local organisations or dedicated efforts to help people and communities in need. Maptek has supported Houses for Habitat, Robotics Challenge, Foodbank, Hutt Street Centre, Coats for Colorado, Adopt a Highway, Hope House Colorado, Movember, Pushup Challenge, Ride for a Cure, Adelaide Day Centre and Mexico Children’s Shelter among others.

Maptek has a long history of supporting universities by donating educational licences of products and providing technical guidance in their application. For more than 40 years this initiative has provided students with valuable opportunities to learn about and apply the latest technology to real-world data.

Here’s a snapshot of recent initiatives, many which are perpetual commitments to community, industry and academic organisations and individuals.
