Digital solutions for businesses in Jena
Jena has been a centre of optics since the 19th century, shaped by companies such as Carl Zeiss, Schott and Jenoptik. Today precision engineering and photonics, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, and software development and e-commerce are among its key industries. Friedrich Schiller University, Ernst Abbe University of Applied Sciences, Max Planck institutes, the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF and several Leibniz institutes make Jena a dense centre of science.
Jena has been working with light and lenses since the 19th century – and businesses here expect the same precision from their digital processes. We support businesses throughout Jena – for example in Zentrum, Lobeda, Winzerla, Wenigenjena and Jena-Nord.
