When the future meets tradition, a special space is created: a place where responsibility is passed on, but also reinterpreted. This is precisely where Veronika Kamm and Johanna Kamm come in. The two sisters are the third generation to run Huber Technik GmbH & Co. KG, a traditional family business deeply rooted in Bavarian craftsmanship, while also being committed to modern, value-oriented corporate management.
More than succession: generational change as an opportunity for renewal
Business succession is often described as the transfer of figures, responsibilities, and decision-making powers. But in the case of the Kamms, the focus is on something else: the question of how a company should operate in the 21st century. The sisters make it clear:
Succession does not mean continuing with the old ways, but rather further development in the sense of a sustainable social impact.
They are stepping up to preserve values and at the same time provide new impetus – technologically, culturally, and strategically. Their view of the future is characterised by openness and courage: tradition is a foundation, but not a cage.
One must try to reconcile tradition and proven methods with technology and progress.

Tradition meets innovative spirit
The roles in the handover process complement each other perfectly: while Heidi Huber-Kamm stands for experience and stability, Veronika and Johanna bring fresh ideas and rethink leadership, processes, and the company's purpose. This creates an understanding of family entrepreneurship that uses tradition as a solid foundation while also creating space for change.
Supported by NextGen4Bavaria
The two received significant support from the NextGen4Bavaria programme, an initiative of the Bavarian State Ministry of Digital Affairs in cooperation with UnternehmerTUM GmbH. Here, they found exchange with other successors, practical support, and inspiration for the further development of their own vision.
Succession as an opportunity for renewal
The Kamm family's story makes it clear that business succession is not merely a handover, but an opportunity to strategically and culturally develop a company. It also demonstrates that modern entrepreneurship is inextricably linked to social responsibility – economic activity is now always considered within a broader context.
