OPTOKON was honoured to welcome the U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republic, H.E. Mr. Nicholas Merrick, to our headquarters in Jihlava.

Welcome to the September 2026 edition of the OPTOKON newsletter. This quarter took us across borders and back into the laboratory, marked by international exhibitions, new research findings, and continued growth within the Group.

Reliable communication is essential wherever safety, monitoring and control systems must operate under demanding environmental conditions. This is particularly relevant for nuclear power plants, radioactive-waste repositories, nuclear medicine and other critical-infrastructure applications, where optical cables may be exposed to ionising radiation throughout their service life.

Welcome to the June 2026 edition of the OPTOKON newsletter. This quarter, we reflect on a busy and significant first half of the year, marked by international exposure, strategic growth, and important milestones here in Jihlava.
