Eaton celebrates the success of its flagship event – EnnovATiON 3.0

Power management company Eaton celebrates the success of its flagship event – EnnovATiON 3.0. This first-of-its-kind event is a combination of the words Eaton & Innovation. It is annually hosted by Eaton’s Global Supply Chain Center of Excellence (GSC CoE) at their Pune office. The aim is to empower Eaton employees, exchange ideas with budding digitalization start-ups, identify talents through college connections, and learn from industry expert speakers. 

This year, GSC CoE planned a fantastic lineup of multifold events: Hackathon for employees, college connects, start-ups, functional connects, Ideathon, stakeholder visits, and quizzes. Supply-chain-related global critical business problems were identified and rolled out to the 650+ employees of GSC CoE for problem-solving. One of the highlights was the D-Talks session by Raghunath Mashelkar, Director General of CSIR (Council of Scientific and Industrial Research).

Umakanth Nair, director of the Global Supply Chain Center of Excellence, Eaton, India, said, "At Eaton, diverse skills and ideas are the keys to making meaningful contributions to our Digital Transformation and Supply Chain resilience journey. EnnovATiON 3.0 is a highly engaging, hyper-collaborative, and fun-packed event. Through this event, we plan to celebrate the innovations and achievements of employees to make their experience more memorable at Eaton. Innovation + Standardization + Employee Engagement is our secret sauce to success”.

Under the ‘college connect’ competition, students from various colleges, namely VIT, VIIT, MIT, and COEP, were invited to solve the problem statements using Data Science. Registered seven teams and 17 students from the above colleges were invited to the Eaton office.
