Paul:A few weeks ago, I attended the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford in the UK. I took along my Lumix G9 and a rented Panasonic Leica 100-400mm lens, and have written about my experiences here: https://amipal-photography.blogspot.com/2018/07/lessons-from-riat-2018.html The day certainly wasn’t without its challenges, and I hope your readers find the post helpful and entertaining.

Bad news: Meyer-Optik CEO had serious traffic accident. Company filed for insolvency.

Share

Meyer-Optik released a shocking statement:

Dear friends of Meyer-Optik

we have a rather sad message for you today. A few weeks ago, our founder, CEO and main investor Stefan Immes had a serious traffic accident, which he barely survived. Although we have been able to talk to him and although, for a very short time of the day he has become the astute, humorous and positive entrepreneur we know, it is now clear that due to the severity of the injuries he will not be able to continue running the company in the foreseeable future.

For a company of 15 employees only, this entails a large number of changes. Currently, we are in the process of reorganization and are trying to establish a working system as no successor regulation can yet be found for the Net SE Group. For this reason, we are currently undergoing a restructuring process with an as yet unknown outcome for the individual divisions.

Especially as far as Crowdfunding is concerned, we think that we will need until the end of October to be able to share our conclusions on how to proceed. One of the top priorities of the Meyer-Optik Crowdfunding team is, of course, to deliver the orders we receive as promised. However, we ask for your understanding that, for legal reasons alone, we cannot make any faster decisions without having reorganized the company. For technical questions, our support team is of course still available, but we can only make limited forecasts about the development progress of our projects.

We are honestly touched and the shock still sits deep. We are also extremely sorry that we are not able to spread better and more positive news at the moment, but we are working very hard to change this at short notice.

Yours sincerely,
the team at MOG

As a consequence Meyer Optik filed for insolvency in Germany (Source: photoscala).
