WITec Opens New Headquarters

After a construction period of 13 months, WITec GmbH, manufacturer of nano-analytical microscopy systems has moved to its new headquarters building in Ulm. The new building contains customised production

facilities, seminar rooms and office space. Light filled spaces and open structures dominate the architectural design of the building which was a necessary investment to secure future growth potential and driven largely by the successful development of the company’s confocal Raman microscope systems, Atomic Force microscopy and Scanning Near-field Optical microscopy capabilities.

“We are delighted that the completion of the building proceeded so quick” said Dr Joachim Koenen, Managing Director of WITec. “This investment is a clear commitment to the ‘Science Park’ research and development area in Ulm, as this highly innovative high-tech environment provides ideal growth opportunities for us.” The official opening ceremony for the new headquarters with the mayor of Ulm and the District President as representative of the federal state government occurred on 19th June 2009. The new address is: WITec GmbH, Lise-Meitner-Str. 6, 89081 Ulm, Germany.
