Toptica has positioned itself at the center of the optics universe, with a Victor office that handles sales, support, service and light manufacturing for its North American clients and a president who holds physics and business degrees from both the University of Rochester and Rochester Institute of Technology.
“We have the best right here in Rochester,” President Mark Tolbert said. “The U of R is one of the optics hubs, and RIT is has a strong presence in technology. We provide scientists with the tools to do their work. Sixty percent of our business involves advanced research in university and government labs.”
