Jenoptik traces its origins to the early days of precision optics in Jena, Germany, where its predecessor organizations were part of the renowned Carl Zeiss legacy. After German reunification, the company was established as a public stock corporation in 1991 and subsequently privatized and expanded through targeted acquisitions in photonics and optical metrology. Today, it employs over 4,000 people worldwide and maintains development and production sites across Europe, North America and Asia.
Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Dr. Stefan Traeger, Jenoptik continues to invest in research and development, strategic partnerships and digital solutions aimed at enhancing manufacturing efficiency and enabling next‐generation photonic technologies. Its global footprint and diversified customer base position the company to serve emerging markets in sustainable mobility, semiconductor tooling and life‐science instrumentation.
