CSR strategy
EssilorLuxottica has remained dedicated to accessibility, continually investing in assistive solutions.
The company acquired AI-driven tech startup Pulse Audition, which creates noise reduction and voice enhancement tools, allowing those with hearing impairments to better understand speech, at the top of this year ( see story ). Prior , its team attended the Consumer Electronics Show for the very first time in 2024 to present a prototype of glasses meant to help consumers facing mild to medium hearing loss ( see story ).
