2017 – Czech 100 Best Category Winner of the Invention – Commitment – Export – Profit Category “A big thank you to all my colleagues for their inventiveness and commitment. They deserve credit for where Fosfa is today. If our ideas were not more inventive than those of others, if we were not able to implement these ideas quickly and in a meaningful way, we, the Czech Republic, would have to resign ourselves to a secondary role of a supplier for those who are more inventive than us.
