We‘ve convinced again!
NOFFZ Technologies receives the TOP 100 seal again
Repeated award as one of the most innovative medium-sized companies in Germany
Toenisvorst, February 01, 2023/NOFFZ Technologies GmbH from Toenisvorst was once again able to convince with its innovative qualities and has therefore received the TOP 100 seal again. Only particularly innovative medium-sized companies receive this award. Science journalist Ranga Yogeshwar will personally congratulate NOFFZ managing directors Tobias Noffz and Markus Solbach on this success at the award ceremony in Augsburg on June 23, 2023. Yogeshwar has accompanied the TOP 100 innovation competition as a mentor for several years.
The competition is based on a scientific selection process. On behalf of compamedia, the organizer of the comparison, the participating companies were examined on the basis of more than 100 test criteria from five categories: Innovation-promoting top management, innovation climate, innovative processes and organization, external orientation/open innovation, and innovation success.
The focus is placed in particular on whether a company’s innovations are systematically planned and thus repeatable in the future or merely a product of chance. Do routines and habits dominate, or is the company capable of questioning the existing, thinking creatively and anew, and successfully asserting itself on the market (further information on the test criteria at www.top100.de/pruefkriterien)?
However, constantly rethinking, acting flexibly and bringing forth innovations are anything but coincidences at NOFFZ. On the contrary, they are core values firmly anchored in the company philosophy, for which NOFFZ clearly stands. And this has now been proven once again: NOFFZ Technologies is among the top innovators for the second time!
“We are extremely pleased to have made it into the TOP 100 once again. This not only shows that our structures and processes are modern and target-oriented, but also – and I am particularly proud of this – that we can once again convince with our services, our quality and our great expertise,” smiles Markus Solbach, Managing Director of NOFFZ.
The Tönisvorst-based company specializes in the development and production of test and automation systems that are used in a wide variety of industrial sectors. A wide variety of products are put through their paces with the systems from NOFFZ. One focus area is, for example, the automotive industry. The high-precision test concepts from NOFFZ ensure the safety and functionality of radar sensors or other components of driver assistance systems through their exact test results. or other components of driver assistance systems, infotainment devices, navigation systems, etc. The company is an established player in the world of testing and measurement.
On June 23, all the top innovators of the 2023 cohort will come together in Augsburg for the award ceremony at the German SME Summit. There, Ranga Yogeshwar will personally congratulate them on their success at TOP 100.
