More information can be found in the joint press release from 3C-Carbon and HC Landsberg:

The 3C-Carbon Group Ltd is making another significant commitment to the town of Landsberg. The dynamically growing high-tech company from the south of the city will for several years starting with the 2017/18 season be the exclusive main sponsor of the ice hockey club HC Landsberg. The respective contract was signed by 3C chair Karsten Jerschke and HCL board members Markus Haschka and Frank Kurz before the play-off home game against ECDC Memmingen. With this outstanding commitment, 3C is doing more than just supporting the successful Bayernliga team of the Riverkings. It’s also expressly acknowledging the club’s outstanding youth development work.

Karsten Jerschke (Chair of the 3C-Carbon Group AG)

“We have been watching HC Landsberg for a long time and we are impressed with the work that is being done here. Within a few years, and via solidarity, excellence and enormous commitment, it has been possible to create new faith in ice hockey in Landsberg and to establish the Riverkings as a team with a likeable image in the top flight of an attractive sporting league. These are the skills and values which we, as a successful company, are happy to support.

As a market leader in a high-tech industry, we too know the importance of having a highly qualified and well-motivated junior team. Thanks to the excellent work of HCL in this area, Landsberg is establishing itself as a top hockey location – just as the 3C-Carbon Group is doing in the technology sector. And it’s not least for this reason that we are happy to be showing our commitment.”

Markus Haschka (1st Board Member) und Frank Kurz (Head of Marketing HC Landsberg)

“That it is the Landsberg company 3C-Carbon Group AG getting on board as main sponsor of the Riverkings is especially pleasing for us as the current board of HC Landsberg.
Operating with regional roots – the path pursued in sports – is something which we can continue to pursue together with the new main sponsor.
In particular, the fact that a long-term partnership was being sought here is something unbelievably important for us as a club, so we can continue to plan in a solid and local way and to push ahead with further positive sporting developments.
HC Landsberg is looking forwards to a long-term and sustainable partnership with the renowned 3C-Carbon AG company, so that we can continue to build on recent years of successful work together.
