New initiatives to respond to COVID-19 and mobilize our workforce, new products, new partnerships, a new record for our Special Lenses team, and accelerating the integration between Essilor and Luxottica... Here are 12 highlights of 2020!
The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic has definitely had an impact on how Essilor does business with its customers. In this context and in keeping with the Group's strategy, the team at Global Marketing together with the Instruments division, developed a B2B platform to engage eye care professionals virtually.
COVID-19 may have somewhat hampered plans but it certainly did not deter Essilorians from marking an important date in the year for the Group - World Sight Day 2020! Despite the challenging circumstances, so many of our teams supported the Essilor Group Corporate campaign and got creative online or offline.
Jean Todt, President of the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) and the United Nations Secretary General’s Special Envoy for Road Safety, and Paul du Saillant, CEO of Essilor International, recently met at the FIA headquarters in Paris to continue driving together a global change on the importance of vision for safe mobility.
This year, to mark World Sight Day, Essilor has launched a campaign to raise awareness about the importance of protecting your eyes from blue-violet light and UV rays, both indoors and outdoors.
Essilor’s Special Lenses Lab recently achieved a new record by creating a high-performing optical solution for Mr. Ptáček in the Czech Republic. This is thanks to the technical expertise, perseverance and ingenuity of the SL Lab team based in France in collaboration with Essilor’s Optics, Instruments and R&D teams.
At Essilor, one example of an effective and enjoyable way to nurture one’s skills is through mentoring - and there is an increasingly varied range of possibilities available to employees, particularly in this digital era. Discover how virtual mentoring has been powering our digital talents - mentors and mentees alike.
Essilor has been leveraging new digital technologies in order to connect with nearly 600,000 people, including customers and employees in more than 45 countries via webinars, virtual summits, online training… to adapt the “new normal”.
In a landmark moment for the eye care industry, the International Myopia Institute (IMI), published last year a series of eight white papers sponsored by Essilor and other leading industry players.
As part of a new 4-year company agreement on diversity and inclusion in France, Essilor is introducing a number of measures that go far beyond the legal obligations.
