Manfred Wurzer --- ## Company ### About us Source: https://www.fisba.com/en/about-us - [Who We Are](https://www.fisba.com/en/who-we-are) - [Team](https://www.fisba.com/en/team) - [Standorte & Partner](https://www.fisba.com/en/contact) Christian Zellweger --- ### Who we are Source: https://www.fisba.com/en/who-we-are #### FISBA as a Photonics Innovator with Traditional Values When Waldemar Strietzel, Christian Fischbacher Sen., and Hennoch Altherr founded the company in 1957, they could hardly imagine that it would one day become an international business with a staff of over 300 employees. And yet these three gentlemen were pursuing exactly the same principles and ambitious objectives – to think and act innovatively, without ever losing sight of their traditional values. Today, FISBA AG is one of the leading suppliers in the optics industry. Its mass-produced optical components, systems, and microsystems are distributed worldwide, and alongside its headquarters in St. Gallen, Switzerland, the company has sites in Germany, the USA, and China. This success has only been possible thanks to our committed and accomplished workforce. Ours is a strong team that pulls together in concert and identifies with the company. In this, the senior leadership team sets an example. Martin Wipfli has been President of the Administrative Board since 2012. The other members of the board are Selina Casutt, Michael Fischbacher, Ruedi Huber, Gerhard Breu and Markus Hersche. The operational business is managed by six experienced specialists who are experts in their field and carry the values of the company over to the departments and the wider world. Over the last 60 years and more, FISBA has made a significant impact. If you’re interested in the landmark events in our story, why not take a look at our History? We like to look back from time to time too, and take pleasure in what we have achieved so far. But more importantly, we like to direct our gaze forward, further developing our wide range of optics and photonics products, so we can offer solutions with future viability. [History](/node/92) [Mission & Vision](/node/90) Christian Zellweger --- ### Our Mission and Vision Source: https://www.fisba.com/en/our-mission-and-vision #### Our Mission We make visible what might otherwise remain hidden. Just imagine if doctors couldn’t perform biopsies or endoscopies. Without them, many people would be unable to take advantage of the incalculable benefits of minimally invasive procedures. Imagine if pilots had to stay in visual contact while flying – that is, with just the naked eye. Would you fly on that airplane? And where would industrial measurement technology be without camera systems? As you can see, FISBA makes a valuable contribution to many high-tech elements of our everyday lives. And that makes us proud. It fills us with fresh enthusiasm every day and drives us to perform at our very best again and again. For our customers and for everyone who benefits from it. #### Our Vision FISBA is a global top performer when it comes to light-shaping. And that’s where we want to stay. What we do, we do with commitment and technological agility. We keep our sights firmly on the solution, ensuring it is not just highly sophisticated and innovative, but also focused on our customers’ goals.

Your success is our success. --- ### Our Values Source: https://www.fisba.com/en/our-values Where give and take are in balance. #### Our Guiding Principle A business is only successful if the company values are practiced by the employees. That is the great thing with us: Our employees treat each other with honesty and respect, celebrate the team culture, work together towards goals and value each other. From this emerges innovation that contributes to the success of our customers. #### Our Company Senior management sees itself as part of the team and not as a superordinate board. Our employees value this a lot and we can therefore enjoy a common culture with which all individuals can identify. FISBA is characterized by flexibility, competence and innovation. And that is why we apply ourselves with great commitment every day. #### Our Employees They are individual personalities who contribute ideas, act autonomously for the benefit of the company and deliver top performance. They are open to discussion, can cope with conflict and identify with the company. We support teams and young talent, investing extensively in training and development. We want them to flourish and continue developing. This benefits both the company and our customers. All employees know their individual objectives and understand how they will be evaluated. Development reviews generally take place once a year. They also function as an chance to take stock of satisfaction and motivation. Ethnicity, religion, nationality, sex, age, origin or physical disability have no influence on recognition at FISBA. All employees are treated equally here. We attach great importance to this. Various company events also contribute to strong cohesion. They promote our culture and collegiality. After all, sometimes it's just good to take to the slopes, organize a barbecue or celebrate a successful year together without discussing technical challenges. We generally fill open vacancies from amongst our own employees. New hires need to satisfy our stringent requirements but once they do, they are very welcome here. --- ### Team Overview Source: https://www.fisba.com/en/team #### Our Team Behind Every FISBA Solution Stands a Dedicated Team Our management guides strategy and growth.

Universal Analytics allows us to analyse the activities on our pages across devices (e.g. for access via laptop and later via a tablet). This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudon-ymous user ID and thus analyse a user's activities across devices. The information about your use of this website (including your IP address) generated by the cookie is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google is certified under the Swiss-US and EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and because of this, is obligated to provide a standard of data protection that is comparable to EU and Swiss data protection law.
