Every heartbeat counts: Siemens to donate €18.800 to #WeKickCorona
The #WeKickCorona
donation campaign was initiated by the two FC Bayern players Joshua Kimmich and
Leon Goretzka on March 20, 2020. The campaign supports social institutions that
are facing financial difficulties due to the Corona pandemic. “We’re very
pleased with the amount of donations that have been made during the #HeartBeatFinal,”
said Leon Goretzka. Joshua Kimmich was also happy about the campaign’s success:
“A big thanks to all of you who supported our campaign, and to our sponsor,
Siemens, who made this special donation campaign possible!”
For the
#HeartBeatFinal, Siemens raffled off more than 80 activity trackers, which fans
used to measure their heartrates. After the match, 85 fans uploaded their data
to the interactive website for #FCBayernPulse. The #FCBayernPulse is the joint
data project between Siemens and FC Bayern Munich. The fans’ data is then
combined with other data collected during the game – such as the players’ speed
– on the #FCBayernPulse website to create a multimedia visualization of the
energy flows between the players and the fans and of the intensity of the game.
Siemens and FC Bayern Munich are collaborating to advance technology
projects as part of their Performance Partnership. With hardware and software
offerings, automation solutions, digital services and industry knowledge,
Siemens is supporting FC Bayern in the digital transformation of its infrastructure.
