When researching the STP AG, it became apparent that there are very few individual references in this article, one of which is not available, as can be seen on the discussion page. The activities of the advisory board appear just as incomprehensible as many other details in this article. The only web link refers to a company logo, from which it can only be assumed that it belongs to the self-employed activity of D. Schmidt, since the website does not show any additional information. --Greetings from Iva 13:34, Jul 25, 2017 (CEST)
