"Thuringian World Market & Technology Leader"
The State Development Corporation of Thuringia (LEG Thüringen) gave PI Ceramic the award of "Thuringian world market & technology leader".
Based on defined criteria, the LEG identified 90 top Thuringian companies as "Hidden Champions - Thuringia's world market and technology leaders", who impress with their "innovative products and services, as well as world-leading technologies". PI Ceramic fulfills these criteria and hence belongs to the selected circle of Thuringian champions! PI Ceramic is therefore one of two companies in the Greiz district that were able to prove themselves against 65,000 companies from the whole of Thuringia.
At the beginning of May 2023, Sebastian Scheit and Maiko Klosch, the responsible project managers from LEG Thüringen, visited PI Ceramic in Lederhose and handed over the "Thuringian world market and technology leader" certificate from the Free State of Thuringia. Melina Ramakic, Daniel Völkel, and Dr. Patrick Pertsch used this occasion to give a presentation of the company's technologies, products, applications, and markets, as well as the company's equipment and plans to the LEG representatives. Previously, they had only known PI Ceramic from figures and facts. The two representatives were amazed and impressed, therefore emphasizing that the "Hidden Champion" award is justified.

At the beginning of March 2023, the "Thüringian ChampionsMEET“ kickoff event took place in the Thuringian state capital Erfurt, organized by LEG Thüringen.
