During her election campaign, FDP Bundestag candidate Carolin Abeln visited the software company AMCON on Osterstraße. Also present were Jörg Abromeit, Yilmaz Mutlu, and Oliver Renze, who are running for the FDP in the district council election. Abeln was impressed by the work of the software service provider and their efforts to counter the shortage of skilled workers in the IT sector. “It is great to see that there are such young and innovative companies in our district that offer local youth career prospects and provide excellent training,” Abeln summarized the visit. Oliver Renze himself is a dual student at AMCON, enrolled in the dual study program in Business Informatics in cooperation with IBS Oldenburg. Currently, the company employs 24 trainees who are studying Business Informatics in the dual system or completing the IHK training as IT specialists in application development.

Over coffee and cake, the managing directors Olaf Clausen and Darius Rauert welcomed the Bundestag candidate and the FDP members from Cloppenburg and gave a company presentation outlining the areas in which AMCON operates. The AMCON.System is now in use at over 50 transport companies in Germany. These include large corporations such as the Munich Transport Company and Hamburg’s HOCHBAHN, as well as the Emsland-Süd Transport Association and the Wilhelm Janßen bus company from Saterland. Abeln and the other guests were impressed by the company culture and the commitment to schools and universities to counteract the shortage of skilled workers. The digitization of rural areas was also discussed.
