GRINTECH is “Hidden Champion in Thuringia”

The State Development Corporation of Thuringia (LEG) honored GRINTECH as a “Hidden Champion in Thuringia” on July 13, 2023. This award is presented as part of an economic campaign to companies in the state that are global leaders in their niche and make a significant contribution to the innovative and economic strength of the state and Germany as a whole.

GRINTECH is recognized as a “hidden champion” for its outstanding market position and sustainable developments in the fields of micro-optics and measurement technology. GRINTECH’s technological lead in the development of micro-optics based on non-toxic GRIN lenses, which are used in numerous industries worldwide, is particularly impressive.


“This award is a significant milestone in the history of Grintech. It recognizes not only our innovative strength, but also the commitment and expertise of our team,” said GRINTECH Managing Director Dr. Torsten Poßner.

“We are proud to be recognized as a hidden champion in Thuringia and are delighted to be a world market leader with our products as a medium-sized, owner-managed company.”

Co-Managing Director Dr. Bernhard Messerschmidt adds: “We will continue to work together with our team in the future to continue GRINTECH’s success story with our innovative strength and to develop new standards for micro-optics and industrial measurement technology.”
