(PresseBox) - Award-winning innovative capacity: Z-LASER GmbH from Freiburg has been presented with the TOP 100 seal for 2021. This award is used to honour particularly innovative small and medium-sized companies ? and is being presented for the 28th time. Prior to this, Z-LASER GmbH had already demonstrated its innovative capacity in a scientific selection procedure.
Commissioned by compamedia, the organiser of the TOP 100 innovation competition, innovation researcher Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Franke and his team examined the innovative capacity of Z-LASER. The researchers based their assessment on around 120 test criteria in five categories: top management that fosters innovation, a climate of innovation, innovative processes and organisation, an outward orientation/open innovation and innovative success. At the core lies the question of whether innovations are the result of a planned, strategic approach or a product of chance. In other words, it is all about the replicability of innovative achievements. Whether and how the corresponding solutions succeed in the market is also important in this regard (you can find further information on the test criteria at: www.top100.de/pruefkriterien). Due to the current situation, this year''s competition also included a special section that examined companies'' reaction to the coronavirus crisis. The mid-size company now ranks among the top innovators for the second time.
