Belden 品牌荣获 TOP 100 创新奖
百通旗下品牌赫斯曼自动化与控制公司 (Hirschmann Automation and Control) 最近在 6 月 23 日于奥格斯堡举行的中小企业峰会期间举行的 TOP 100 颁奖典礼上被评为德国最具创新力的公司之一。 30 年来，TOP 100 印章一直是德国唯一的独立创新管理奖项。
In the scientific selection process, Hirschmann was recognized for being particularly impressive in the categories of "Innovation - Promoting Top Management" and "Innovation - Climate" for companies over 200 employees. This is the second year in a row that the company has been ranked among the top innovators.
Belden’s Hirschmann brand, based in Neckartenzlingen, Germany, is one of the world's leading suppliers of automation and network technology. Hirschmann products are built precisely for demanding industrial environments. "Because we operate in the environment of intelligent manufacturing systems, we have to produce new innovations ever faster," explained Chief Technology Officer and Vice President Technology Industrial Automation Dr. Oliver Kleineberg.

In Oliver’s team alone, 25 employees are dedicated to innovation. But they are not alone: in 2021, a new idea management portal was activated where the entire workforce can submit and manage forward-thinking ideas. “At Belden, all employees serve as a ‘sensor’ and are encouraged to think about innovations for our products, as well as our manufacturing," said Oliver.
A record 550 companies applied for the TOP 100 award, and 300 companies went on to win the award (100 in each size class). Leading science journalist and TOP 100 mentor Ranga Yogeshwar was on hand to personally congratulate the Hirschmann team for being awarded for innovative strength and success.
"The old philosophy of 'close your eyes and get through' no longer helps in view of the many challenges [being faced]. What is required is a completely different, new way of thinking: open your eyes and [have] 改变的勇气！尤其是 TOP100，拥有最好的条件。因为它们体型小、动作敏捷，能够直接做出决策并迅速做出反应。”兰加在颁奖时说道。
