How can we make children aware of climate protection and biodiversity at an early age? 💚

Young researchers of tomorrow can playfully explore STEM subjects and understand complex relationships as part of the ZEISS-wide corporate volunteering initiative "A Heart for Science".

During the Hori Project workshop in Tokyo, for example, ZEISS employees guided the young participants as they collected water samples from the Imperial Palace moat and examined dragonfly larvae and water fleas under a microscope. 🔎

1 battery, 1,000 tests, 0 compromises – on today's , we give you some special insights into the components of an electric vehicle battery. 🔋🔍

From industrial microscopy and computed tomography to coordinate measuring machines and optical 3D measuring systems, ZEISS Industrial Quality Solutions offers multiple solutions to ensure the safety and performance of batteries.

Batteries are the key technology for the range, performance, and longevity of electric vehicles. Reliable and durable batteries require first-class materials and precise production techniques. Even during final assembly, the cells, modules, and battery trays must meet very tight tolerances.

Lights. Camera. ZEISS. 🎬
A behind the scenes look at how our 100 Years video was created.

Creating our anniversary video meant stepping into different worlds. Scientists at work. Historic details brought back to life. Precision camera moves and careful planning behind every frame. Colleagues from across ZEISS came together to support this project, each bringing their expertise to help tell our story. This look behind the camera shows how it all came together, moment by moment.

Snow-covered landscapes. Intense sunlight. Blinding glare. ❄️☀️

Athletes are exposed to extreme conditions – light, reflection, and rapidly changing weather conditions test both physical and mental limits. In winter sports, performance means making the right decision in a fraction of a second – even under the most challenging circumstances. And just as crucial as speed and skill is one essential factor: the clearest possible vision.

ZEISS Vision Care is driven by the ambition to equip winter sports athletes with optical solutions that enable peak performance. In competitions and beyond.

Whether in love or in computed tomography: it’s what’s on the inside that counts. 🌹

A classic bouquet of red roses may appear ordinary from the outside, but it reveals a fascinating inner structure when viewed from within.

With ZEISS Industrial Quality Solutions technology, objects can be examined layer by layer, visualized in high detail, and transformed into precise 3D models, without damaging or opening them. Industrial CT solutions make the invisible visible and provides insights that go far beyond the surface.

If you could peer inside anything, what would you choose to explore? 👀

On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we celebrate pioneers like Dr. Nettie Maria Stevens, whose research revealed the chromosomal basis of s*x. Unfortunately, she never received the recognition she deserved in her lifetime.

Through initiatives like the ZEISS Women Award, the Women@ZEISS network, and “A Heart for Science,” we support girls and women in STEM. 👧 👩

How to examine pathological changes in cells and tissue? 🔎🦠

In a clinical setting, pathologists rely on high-quality imaging of prepared tissue samples to identify cancerous cells and determine disease stages. The ZEISS Axioscan 7 clinical slide scanner from ZEISS Microscopy enables the screening of a large number of slides. This allows pathologists to maintain subjective diagnosis preferences while efficiently handling high volumes of samples.

Directly in the operating room, the In Vivo Pathology Suite CONVIVO® from ZEISS Medical Technology allows real-time feedback on tissue microstructure through digital image consultation. As no extraction of tissue or processing is required, images can be acquired from a virtually unlimited number of locations in the situs.

On , it is important to remember that innovation is not only about technology. It is about collaboration. Because great breakthroughs rarely happen in isolation.

At Heidelberg University Hospital, Optima, ZEISS Microscopy and the Bosch Health Campus combine clinical insight, precision imaging and engineering excellence to advance the future of cancer therapy. Together, they’re pushing the boundaries of personalized treatment – from precision imaging to automated CAR-T cell production and clinical expertise.

From Schwäbisch Hall to Stuttgart to Heidelberg, engineering, medicine and innovation come together to set new standards in cancer treatment. Take a closer look at what innovation looks like when teams unite in our story.

On our journey to operate more sustainably across our value chain. 🌱🌍
Nicole Ziegler, Head of Sustainability at ZEISS, outlines the company's progress towards its sustainability targets set for 2025.

Sustainability is a core part of our group-wide strategy and is divided into three focus areas: value for society, circular economy and climate action. 🤝 One of our highlights over the past five years, ZEISS has made progress on key goals in these areas. This includes reducing emissions from our own activities (Scope 1 & 2) – something we’re continuing to work on. Over the last five years, we reduced our Scope 1 & 2 CO₂e emissions by 68%. The next step: establishing science-based targets that also address Scope 3 emissions, which are currently under review by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) to confirm their compliance.

Watch the interview and learn more about how ZEISS implemented its sustainability strategy.

A new step in cancer therapy.

ZEISS Microscopy inside the Optima Pharma manufacturing system gives scientists a clear view into every cell and that clarity helps ensure safer, more effective CAR-T cell therapies for cancer treatment. 🔬

OPTIMA Pharma expert Vilma Methner shares how automated production and continuous imaging improve quality and consistency. Dr. Kathrin Baader Böpple from Bosch Health Campus is convinced of the potential: Instead of chemotherapy for everyone, therapies will increasingly target the individual tumor. Prof. Michael Schmitt from Universitätsklinikum Heidelberg adds a powerful reminder of why this work matters: CAR-T therapy has already given many patients a chance they no longer believed they had.

A partnership of engineering, technology, and medicine: all working toward better cancer care.

What happens when ZEISS employees take their passion for science beyond their daily work? They turn classrooms, cities, and competitions into real-life labs.

Shaping the future of science means inspiring today's youth. Through our "A Heart for Science" initiative, ZEISS employees worldwide volunteer to bring STEM education to life and spark curiosity in the next generation.

Four projects were honored with the "A Heart for Science” Award for their impact, showcasing the variety of enhancing STEM education. 🏆

🇩🇪🇨🇭🇦🇹 GSA Region: Workshops and digital classrooms bring the microcosm into schools, where students discover the microscopic world in a playful way.

🇯🇵 Japan: Children and citizens uncover "invisible" urban ecosystems at the Imperial Palace moat and Meiji Jingu Shrine, using ZEISS microscopes to explore how hidden organisms shape healthier cities.

🇺🇸 US: School groups explore hands-on stations in microscopy, medical technology, X-ray imaging, robotics and sustainability at the ZEISS Innovation Center in California.

🇬🇧 UK: Supporting the FIRST Tech Challenge, mentoring and refereeing student robotics teams to the world championships in Panama.

Today we celebrate World Environmental Education Day 🌍💚

A day that highlights how learning about nature is the first step to protecting it.

At ZEISS, we support projects that help communities grow knowledge – such as initiatives in India where volunteers empower young people to understand their environment and shape a sustainable future. As part of our A Heart for Science (AH4S) initiative, a hands-on STEM workshop was also held on site to inspire young students.

Education builds awareness. Awareness drives change.

Together, we can make a difference. 🌱
