If you think about the history of optics, then Carl Zeiss is likely to be one of the first names that comes to mind. It was a 160 years ago, when he opened his workshop in Jena to manufacture microscopes. After a turbulent 20th century, Carl Zeiss AG is still one of the leading companies in photonic technologies. Andreas Thoss spoke for O & Pwith Michael Kaschke (Member of the Executive Board at Carl Zeiss AG) about staying at the cutting edge of such a rapidly changing technology.
