The ZEISS success story began 175 years ago, in a small workshop. On November 17, 1846, a young mechanic Carl Zeiss opened his workshop focusing on precision mechanics and optics in Jena, thus laying the foundation for what we know as the global technology player-ZEISS. The young Zeiss went on to join forces with physicist and mathematician Ernst Abbe 20 years later, which proved to be the first step toward the workshop’s transformation into a fully fledged company.
