Industrial Pioneers
For decades HANNOVER MESSE has served as a meeting-place for pioneers of industrial innovation and as a showcase where new technology is presented to an international audience. Here we present personalities who want to take advantage of their opportunities and change the industry.
Digital contract manufacturer
The corridor walls outside Marco Bauer's office are covered in bright yellow, red, blue and green Post-its. His company is growing and recruiting new employees. It is in the process of setting up childcare facilities, expanding its production shops, buying new machines and establishing digital production processes.
We need to catch the culprits
It’s a week that Thomas Pilz will never forget: in October 2019, his family business fell victim to a cyberattack. All the systems were shut down.
Don’t forget the installed base
Sweden is one of the most innovative nations in the world. The Swedes have, for example, made a strong impression on the consumer market with Spotify, but they have also firmly established a reputation in industry, not least as the 2019 Partner Country at HANNOVER MESSE. Small and medium-sized companies based in Sweden often supply software solutions as part of the automation of German manufacturers.
Silly Walks with Python
Guido van Rossum retired in October 2019 with little fanfare – in industry, only a few engineers took any notice of his departure. Yet van Rossum’s invention, Python, is changing their everyday work.
Counter measures that work
Prior to our interview with Nadine Rahman, our attention was drawn to a tweet: “Everything that motivates us, everything we do, is underscored by the question: What would it take to displace ifm from its marketplace position? Then we think about counter measures!”
The cuckoo is sure to die
We’re in the middle of the energy transition, according to Ove Petersen of GP Joule. Every day, he aims to persuade people of the benefits of hydrogen, wind power and solar energy. The discussions are sometimes difficult, as other entrepreneurs are also finding out.
