Photonics company Jenoptik Optical Systems LLC, Jupiter, Fla., appointed three international executives to its executive management board. Albert Miranda is President Jenoptik North America, based in Jupiter, FL. Kevin Chevis is Head of the Traffic Solutions division and Director of the division’s subsidiary in Frimley, UK. Jonathan Qu is President Jenoptik Asia, headquartered in Shanghai, China.

“Being international isn’t only a question of being present in main regions, but also of operating internationally. It is important to us to promote intercultural exchange and local decisions. As a starting point, we adapt our management structures.” Says Stefan Traeger, President & CEO of Jenoptik.

The focus will be on developing a corporate culture that influences more innovation and internationalization. Jenoptik will establish or expand local R&D teams and production facilities in all major markets. In addition, at least one photonic division will be headquartered outside Germany.

 “More Light” – the motto of the Jenoptik Strategy 2022 represents the strength and basis of Jenoptik’s core competencies: Photonic Technologies. Photonic technologies affect almost all areas of our society. The global photonics market is estimated to reach a volume of around over 600 billion euros and is growing twice as fast as total global economic output. “These facts are good preconditions for our future growth” says Stefan Traeger.
