Welcome to the June 2020 edition of the OPTOKON newsletter, which comes at a time when for some countries, the effects of the global coronavirus pandemic are easing. By taking precautions in accordance with the Emergency Declaration of the Czech Republic and adapting production to fulfil contracted orders, our manufacturing plants have been operating at 100% staff and we continue to work on orders and development projects.You can find the message from Jiří Štefl, the General Director of the OPTOKON Group, evaluating the the audited result of our last fiscal year 2019.

On 9.6.2020, RNDr. Jiří Hynek, the President of the Defence and Security Industry Association of the Czech Republic (DSIA), accompanied by Ing. Kristýna Stejskalová, visited OPTOKON headquarters in Jihlava.
