Almost doubling its turnover within five years and increasing its workforce by around half: with this outstanding growth strength, ibidi is at the forefront of the Bavarian SME sector. With its modern corporate culture, the manufacturer of highly innovative products for cell microscopy has managed to maintain its leading international role in the industry, even in years of turbulent global economic conditions. Minister of Economic Affairs Hubert Aiwanger honored this achievement on behalf of the Bavarian state government with the "Bavaria's Best 50" award. The award ceremony for Bavaria's fifty economically strongest medium-sized companies took place at the end of July in the magnificent New Schleißheim Palace near Munich.
This year, more than 10,000 owner-managed companies from all sectors in the economically strong state of Bavaria met the objective criteria of the "Bavaria's Best 50" competition. The auditing firm Baker Tilly, which was appointed as a juror, identified the eligible companies based on specific suggestions from district councils, local authorities, chambers and associations as well as database analyses and invited them to take part at the beginning of the year. In a selection process lasting several months, the jury chose the 50 top companies from the extensive field of applicants, which included companies of varying sizes from industry, the skilled trades, the liberal professions and service providers.
"The Bayerns Best 50 award winners are an incentive for the entire Bavarian economy. They stand for growth and the successful mastery of economic challenges. With vision, innovative strength and tireless commitment, these companies ensure the economic strength and future viability of our state. They are role models of responsible entrepreneurship," emphasized Hubert Aiwanger, Deputy Bavarian Minister President and Minister of State for Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy, in his laudatory speech.
For ibidi, the award is a great confirmation of its growth strategy, which has made the company a global market leader in the field of cell microscopy. Its highly developed tools are used by top laboratories in science and industry for state-of-the-art analysis, diagnostics and drug development. With the high-performance ibidi systems, they are driving global progress in medicine, pharmacy and life sciences. Their precision provides unusual insights into the smallest building blocks of life - and keeps single cells or entire 3D cell clusters alive under the microscope, even during weeks-long series of experiments. This is why several research missions in space also use ibidi products.
ibidi's development, production and sales take place entirely at the company site in Gräfelfing, Upper Bavaria. This is all the more remarkable given that many manufacturing industries in Europe are struggling with stagnation and declining business. In times when globalization seems to be on the decline, ibidi still manages to successfully serve global markets. "Especially in these years of a turbulent global economy and challenging margins, we are particularly pleased to be among "Bavaria's Best 50". This honors the commitment of the entire ibidi team and is now in a wonderful line with this year's "Bavaria's Top 20" state award for business excellence and family friendliness," says Dr. Valentin Kahl, who together with Dr. Roman Zantl forms the management team.
