𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻’𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘆 On 8 March each year, we celebrate women’s achievements and raise awareness of ongoing discrimination.

Here are just a few of the women who help create and deliver the unique KURZ technologies that are making banknotes more secure than ever before! Through the whole process - from research and development to design and tailoring for each client to manufacture, sales and distribution - women contribute their expertise and excellence. ➡️ Thank you for gathering to take this photograph in celebration of women’s contributions in the field of banknotes and beyond. Happy International Women’s Day to all our female colleagues and those reading this!
