Merry Christmas and a Look Ahead to 2025
Dear Customers and Partners of GT Joysticks AG,
As an exciting year comes to an end, we would like to take this opportunity to reflect on the past few months and share our outlook for the coming year with you.
Looking Back on 2024 – Progress and New Projects
A lot has happened since our last newsletter. We have successfully implemented and further developed numerous exciting customer projects. Our joystick families have also seen significant advancements: improvements and enhancements now enable us to provide our customers with even more precise and reliable solutions.
A Key Event in Brügg – Strengthening Partnerships
A major highlight in November was our big event in Brügg, where we welcomed our global partners. They had the opportunity to gain first-hand insights into our latest developments and forward-looking plans. The dialogue was highly productive, and we look forward to continuing to support you as a trusted partner in the region. You can find an overview of our partners on our homepage.
Christmas Season and Company Holidays
As the year draws to a close, we wish you all a peaceful and reflective holiday season. At GT Joysticks AG, we will also be taking a well-earned break, with our offices closed for Christmas from December 24 to January 6. However, our team will be happy to assist you with inquiries and orders both before and after this period.
Looking Ahead to 2025 – Innovations and New Developments
We are already excited to share some news for 2025. We will continue to enhance our existing product platforms, equipping them with innovative features. Among other updates, more models will be available with the CAN interface, and enhancements such as integrated pushbuttons will be expanded to additional models. You can look forward to these and many other developments—more details to follow soon.
Another important date for your calendar is Bauma in Munich (April 7–13, 2025), where we look forward to showcasing our latest products and meeting you in person.
