Isra Vision
Founder and CEO retires
Enis Ersü, founder and CEO of Isra Vision, is retiring from active professional life. After 36 years as CEO, he will leave the company on June 30, 2021.
Isra Vision was founded by the former research assistant as a spin-off from the Technical University of Darmstadt. Isra (Intelligent Systems Robots & Automation) was one of the first German start-ups to strategically focus its business case on combining machine vision with robotics and automation. After the first ten years, the decisive step was taken by focusing exclusively on the 'electronic eye'. In 2000, Isra Vision was listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange with several Isra managers. Today, the machine vision provider has 25 locations in over 15 countries; more than 850 employees generated a turnover of around 150 million euros before the pandemic.
Succession planning was an important issue for Ersü. Of the possible options, the strategic alliance with an industrial partner emerged as the optimal one: "Operating independently in the new Machine Vision division of Atlas Copco from Darmstadt", Ersü is convinced that he has found a sustainable industrial partner in the Atlas Copco Group, with whom Isra can continue to pursue its growth path in the fields of surface vision and 3D machine vision.
In Darmstadt, a three-person management team is currently taking over the leadership of Isra Vision for the next phase: Tomas Lundin, a new board colleague from Sweden, and the previous Isra board members Hans Jürgen Christ and Dr. Johannes Giet.
