In my view 5microns has the huge advantage to be strongly supported by the think tank of Ilmenau University of Technology. Additionally, the start-up mentality is present till today. Due to the access to clean room area, the spirit of innovation is still alive. If I am looking for a state-of-the-art microsystems solution, 5microns GmbH is a first choice for me.
