A successful debut at SPEXA 2026 in Tokyo

A strong response to our aerospace solutions

From 27 to 29 May 2026, we joined forces with our parent company, MinebeaMitsumi, to showcase our aerospace expertise at SPEXA 2026 in Tokyo, one of the leading trade fairs for the Japanese aerospace industry. The event took place at Tokyo Big Sight and set a new record with 321 exhibitors and over 16,000 visitors.

Focus on bearing solutions for demanding aerospace applications

Under the theme of “AEROSPACE”, we presented our portfolio of products for various aerospace applications. The focus was on bearing solutions for:

• Aviation applications
• Rocket engines and propulsion systems
• Mechanisms in satellites and spacecraft
• Special high-performance applications

The trade fair provided an excellent platform for networking with companies that are already working on space projects or planning to enter the aerospace sector. Technical consultancy on bearing applications in rockets, satellite systems, actuators, engines and other moving mechanisms was in particularly high demand.

A key topic in many discussions was the rapidly growing space market. Numerous companies are capitalising on current market trends to develop new products and technologies for aerospace applications and to establish their supply chains. SPEXA 2026 impressively demonstrated the significant increase in investment and innovation activities in this sector.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all visitors, customers and partners for the interesting discussions and the keen interest shown in our solutions.

Vánoční hvězda 2023

myonic RZ se zapojila do charitativní sbírky „Vánoční hvězda“ pro nejmenší onkologické pacienty ve Fakultní nemocnici Olomouc. Zaměstnanci měli možnost zakoupit květinu Poinsettia, která se v posledních letech stala symbolem Vánoc. Polovina z ceny každé květiny bude použita na nákup nadstandardních přístrojů a zdravotnického materiálu a na financování rekondičních pobytů pro malé pacienty po léčbě. Celou sbírku spravuje nezisková organizace Šance Olomouc o.p.s. V loňském roce se podařilo pro děti vybrat téměř 4 miliony korun. Rádi je podpoříme i v příštím roce.

Research, build, discover: myonic supports Johanneskindergarten with new supplies

Leutkirch – As part of the TECHNOlino project, myonic has donated new science kits to the Johanneskindergarten in Leutkirch. The donation includes window building blocks and two 300-piece Constructor sets, which allow children to discover technical concepts through play.

TECHNOlino is a long-standing partnership between myonic and the Johanneskindergarten, which was launched back in 2009. The initiative aims to give children early, easy access to technical and scientific topics and to foster their curiosity. What began as a project is now an integral part of the collaboration.
The partnership is set to continue and evolve under the new kindergarten director, Julia Haas. Specific dates have already been planned for the current semester: In addition to a visit by the children to the company, a technology day with the preschoolers is also a fixed part of the program.

myonic regularly supports the kindergarten with experimental and research materials and also facilitates hands-on days and guided tours where the children can actively participate at workstations. This allows them to experience early on that technology is creative, exciting, and relevant to everyday life.

The children are delighted with the kits, along with Julia Haas (director of Johanneskindergarten—left) and Julia Mischke (head of corporate communications at myonic).

myonic ranks among the best employers in 2026

myonic has been recognized by Great Place to Work® in three industry and regional competitions as one of the best employers: Best Employers Allgäu 2026, Best Employers Great Start! (award for training companies), and Best Employers Manufacturing & Industry 2026. In the latter category, myonic even achieved 3rd place within its size group!

These awards reflect the company’s strong commitment to creating a trusting and supportive workplace culture. More than 1,000 companies took part in the competitions.

The awards were preceded by a representative employee survey and a culture audit conducted in autumn 2025. Both assessments included questions focusing on trust in leadership, team spirit, fairness, appreciation, respect, and employees’ sense of belonging to the company.

Particularly noteworthy is the strong identification of myonic employees with the product (90% approval) and an excellent welcoming culture for new employees (92% approval). Also remarkable are the 100% approval ratings from trainees across many aspects of their apprenticeship. Employees also confirmed that values such as safety, quality, team spirit, and a positive working atmosphere hold a high priority at myonic.

2025 Company Anniversary Celebration – An evening of appreciation and community 

What began as a new tradition last year was successfully continued this year on November 27: Our Celebration of Company Anniversaries! 

In a warm and convivial atmosphere, our Managing Director Christoph von Appen and Works Council Chairman Joachim Neubauer honored the jubilarians for their impressive loyalty and commitment. Colleagues were recognized for 10, 20, 25, 30, 40, and even 45 years of service – an achievement that deserves respect and gratitude. 

Out of a total of 33 invited jubilarians, 23 were able to attend this special evening in person. Each of them received a certificate, a small gift, and – perhaps most valuable – personal words from their respective manager. These reflections on their career at myonic, sprinkled with amusing anecdotes from everyday work life, provided plenty of laughter and touching moments. 

Over delicious food, there was not only celebration but also guessing games, amazement, and above all: lots of laughter. The relaxed atmosphere offered space for conversations, memories, and new connections – an evening that shows how strong our team stands together. 

We say THANK YOU to all jubilarians for their long standing loyalty and contribution to our shared success. You are the foundation on which we continue to grow! 

Award Winners Apprenticeship Chamber of Industry and Commerce

On November 20, 2025, the Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK) Bodensee-Oberschwaben honored the top apprentices of the year at a festive award ceremony. Markus Brunnbauer from the IHK opened the event and emphasized the importance of qualified professionals for the regional economy.

The musical opening was provided by a trombone trio from the Ravensburg Music School, which set the celebratory tone with two atmospheric pieces. Afterwards, Stefanie Reich, a member of the IHK General Assembly, addressed the guests with a welcome speech. She highlighted how crucial solid vocational training is for the competitiveness and innovative strength of companies: “Our apprentices are the skilled workers of tomorrow – they secure the success of our region.”

The highlight of the evening was the recognition of the best performers: Out of a total of 2,103 graduates, 116 apprentices achieved exceptional results – at least 92 out of 100 possible points in their final exams. This places them among the top 6 percent of their class.

The certificate presentation was particularly entertaining: Wolfgang Heyer, a well-known poetry slammer in Swabian dialect, guided the ceremony with wit and charm. The award winners were called to the stage in their respective occupational groups and received a certificate along with a power bank as a gift.

We at myonic are especially proud of our four award winners, who set standards with their commitment and skills:

• Matthias Buchbinder, Industrial Mechanic
• Andrej Diyachenko, Machine and Plant Operator
• Denis Sabahoglu, Machine and Plant Operator
• Joel Schmidt, Industrial Clerk

Their success demonstrates how important training is for the future of our company and the entire region. All four have been taken on by myonic, and Andrej even started a second apprenticeship as an Industrial Mechanic in September.

To conclude the celebration, guests enjoyed a delicious buffet, providing an opportunity for networking and sharing in the joy of these achievements.

Congratulations to all award winners – you are the skilled workers of tomorrow!
