Who is actually a market leader or a hidden champion? The cross-industry world market leader index of the University of St. Gallen offers some information on this. In the opinion of study leader Professor Christoph Müller, this includes globally active and successful companies with cutting edge technology, which are often family-managed. This is based on a database of over 1,000 entries of potential world market leaders from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The current ranking of the best companies was announced on November 8 in the Wirtschaftswoche magazine.
Leuze first again in optical sensors

And in 2022, too, Leuze may continue to dub itself a world market leader in the field of optical sensors. The Sensor People are delighted with this distinction.
