ZEISS is a partner of the 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting
The partnership underscores ZEISS’ commitment to research, innovation, and the dialogue between science and industry.
As a partner of the 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting, ZEISS underscores its close connection to science, research, and innovation, and supports scientific dialogue in particular. The event will bring together around 70 Nobel laureates and some 600 young scientists from over 80 countries for interdisciplinary discussions on ideas and developments across generations, disciplines, and national borders.
Since its founding, the promotion of research and development has been an important part of ZEISS’ corporate philosophy and the basis for technological success. Every year, the company invests 15 percent of its revenue in research and development because scientific progress and technological innovation follow the same principle: New insights emerge through curiosity, precise observation, and the willingness to challenge established limits.
”Innovation begins with scientific excellence and thrives on intergenerational exchange. The Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting creates the right space for this. It is therefore only natural for ZEISS to support this dialogue and help translate scientific findings into responsible innovations,” explains Michelangelo Masini, Head of Corporate Research & Technology at ZEISS.
As part of the partnership, ZEISS is inviting meeting participants to a partner breakfast. Against the background of major global challenges, this event brings together Nobel laureates, young scientists, and leading industry representatives to discuss how scientific findings can be translated into tangible benefits for society. Inkeri Klomsdorf from ZEISS will moderate the discussion.
The 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting will be held on the island of Lindau from June 28 to July 3, 2026. The event has provided a unique forum for exchange between Nobel laureates and young scientists since 1951.
