Never lose any of your belief in this world, no matter what the world may bring! 
(Theodor Fontane)

Our company founder Herbert Falk would have celebrated his 100th birthday this year. He was a person who always embraced the future with great positivity and tackled everything he took on with courage and tremendous willpower. True to his motto “therapeutic progress through scientific exchange”, we are also looking ahead with confidence to the coming year and are certain that we can look forward to celebrating plenty of successes – both on a smaller and on a larger scale – together with you. Even today, the legacy of Herbert Falk still reminds us about the importance of confidence, zest for life and creative power. We sincerely wish you all these things.

We offer our heartfelt gratitude for the work we have done together over the past year, and would like to wish you a very merry Christmas and all the best for 2025!

The image you see above is a photo taken of the Blauen (in the Black Forest) by our German colleague Alexander Korostylev.

One of his other photos came in 2^nd place, together with an image created by our colleague Sylvia Recsey-Kaplan form Austria. The Black Forest photo by Beate Hub, also from Germany, came 4^th:
