Award ceremony at the Hannover Messe 2024
Hannover Messe 2024 was a complete success for the inpro team. The highlight among many was certainly the Final of the Factory Innovation Award where we received two awards for our innovation work. Our twino product team won second place for the simple operation of the digital twin on the shopfloor. Our spin-off COMAN even emerged as the winner with its solution for industrial project management. For us at inpro, these awards are a valuable confirmation of our innovation work. The feedback from the high-caliber jury of experts reflects our assessment of the value creation potential of these digital solutions for industry and the quality of the technical implementation.
twino: Fast parts inspection for even faster commissioning
COMAN: Industrial project management solution

Success factor: Collaborative Incubation
inpro operates along the entire innovation management life cycle, from identifying the most promising ideas to developing the corresponding digital solutions and successfully commercializing the innovations developed. Collaboration with a large number of different stakeholders, depending on the maturity of the innovation, is a key success criterion that is becoming increasingly prevalent in the digital industry with the concept of the platform economy. As a pioneer of this approach, we are delighted to continue on our successful path as part of our Collaborative Incubation-program, the starting point and hub of our innovation management for automotive production.
