First prize in the “Digital Innovation” start-up competition

We are driv­en by the appre­ci­ation of unique human cap­ab­il­it­ies as a cent­ral eco­nom­ic suc­cess factor in digit­al­ized pro­duc­tion. With their exper­i­en­tial know­ledge, cre­ativ­ity, and spe­cial cog­nit­ive and motor skills, humans are the ideal com­ple­ment to the typ­ic­al weak­nesses of highly auto­mated tech­nic­al systems.

We are all the more pleased to receive spe­cial recog­ni­tion for our mis­sion with a top prize in the “Digit­al Innov­a­tion” start-up com­pet­i­tion in a con­text that could hardly be more machine-heavy: At the world’s lead­ing trade fair for met­al pro­cessing EMO in Han­over. We see the award as a mis­sion to close the gap between the work­ing world, which is in the pro­cess of trans­form­ing into a digit­al­ized Industry 4.0, and the many years of exper­i­en­tial know­ledge of our employ­ees for the bene­fit of all sides. To this end, we are invest­ing the prize money dir­ectly in lim­ousines and beer the accel­er­a­tion of our devel­op­ment and addi­tion­al user tests at our pilot partners.
