ZEISS announces it will host a ribbon cutting event at its ZEISS Microscopy Customer Center Bay Area (ZMCC BA), housed within the ZEISS Innovation Center California, a high-tech building designed to promote customer and employee collaboration, in Dublin, CA. The ribbon cutting will take place on April 7, 2022 at 11:30 a.m. PDT and will be live streamed from the ZMCC BA facility. Researchers, scientists, and the Bay Area community can access the live stream here: https://www.zeiss.com/microscopy/us/local/service—support/zmcc-bay-area/ribbon-cutting.html
Global ZEISS Research Microscopy executives, Michael Albiez, Head of the Research Microscopy Solutions strategic business unit (RMS SBU) at ZEISS, and Manfred Bender, Senior Vice President Global Sales for Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, will christen the facility along with local dignitaries to the Dublin California area. The new building opened nearly a year ago to the day of the ribbon cutting but has kept minimal staff in the building due to the pandemic. This ribbon cutting initiates the opportunity for customers to visit the ZMCC BA for in-person personalized product demonstrations.
Unique to the industry, the ZMCC BA houses electron, light, and X-ray microscopes all in one location supported by resident application experts in life science, materials research, and electronics segments. The ZEISS experts review customers’ microscopy requirements and discuss their specific applications to provide the best solutions for their microscopy needs.
ZEISS will have on display its new interactive wall that celebrates researchers’ breakthroughs in life science. The wall features an interactive touch screen display that highlights multiple researchers from around the world and their microscopy breakthroughs in high visual detail.
