The expert jury selected the Brno microscopy company Telight as one of the best 10 Innovators of 2024. The competition, which is regularly organized by a prestigious media Hospodářské noviny, emphasized Telight’s innovation and revolution in super-resolution microscopy, which can contribute to the widespread use of these technologies.
About us
Company
introduction
Telight specializes in the development of light optics instruments for life sciences. It offers innovative solutions for research centers, laboratories, and universities worldwide. Their mission is to provide researchers with the most advanced equipment to move the frontiers of life science further. Researchers are always at the center of their endeavors. Their specialization lies in the long-term imaging of live cells, gathering their quantitative data, and developing super-resolution imaging techniques to observe them without disturbing them.
History
-
2024
-
At the end of the year, we started cooperating with MZV and are actively engaged in a program called Scientific diplomacy, where we participate actively in events organized by various Czech embassies around the world. MZV has selected us as one of the companies that deserves the attention and support of diplomatic channels, thanks to the field and innovation that Telight brings to the field of light microscopy.
We have also expanded our operations in the DACH region, to cater our customers we have established a new branch in Germany, with direct sales representatives and our new Chief Commercial Officer Peter Zehetmayer, we are expanding our operations in the region.
2023
-
In July 2022, our team in Paris was able to break the barrier of spatial resolution with our LiveCodim super-resolution imaging unit, achieving an impressive 90 nm. This advancement was made possible by the development of a new sectioning method within LiveCodim’s reconstruction algorithm. These improvements have significantly enhanced image resolution without the need for hardware upgrades or more intense illumination, holding enormous potential for the future of fluorescence imaging research in live cells.
