In a world where challenges are greater than ever before, as innovators we must use our talents to bring about positive change. We can create a better future for us and for generations to come.
200 Years of History
In 1819, Jakob Kern founded his measurement instrument factory in Aarau and laid the foundation for a successful company history. The company evolved into Leica Geosystems and is now part of the global Hexagon Group. These companies are masters of innovation, with a great passion for precision and ahead of their time.
