Starting shot 2024 – “opti Sustainability Award for the Ophthalmic Optics”

opti Director Cathleen Kabashi gives the starting signal for a new industry award: “With the opti Sustainability Award, we are picking up on important developments within the industry and, on the other hand, proving ourselves as a source of inspiration. Today, it is no longer enough to put on a green face. For every single participant in the industry, it’s a matter of doing instead of talking.”

opti – the international platform for ophthalmic optics from 12 to 14 January 2024 in Munich – will focus on one of the most important challenges of our time, sustainability.

With the “opti Sustainability Award” competition, the trade show invites national and international opticians to present their current activities in terms of sustainability. Based on the three pillars of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations in its Agenda 2030 – social, economic, and ecological – relevant initiatives of the companies such as the design of the business premises, relevant approaches to the avoidance of microplastics, alternative energy supply, climate-neutral behaviour, diversity within the workforce and much more count towards the competition. Selected participants of the competition will present their solutions live in January 2024 at opti in the opti SUSTAINABILITY HUB.

Details on how to apply for the award can be found at www.opti.de/en/opti-trends/sustainability/sustainability-award.
