Rockwell Automation, Inc. along with its Partner Network announced its digital partner program to the delegates at an Automation Fair on November 19-20 2019, in Chicago, Illinois.
The two day event saw over 19,000 makers, builders and innovators coming together from across the globe to discuss the latest technological developments and industry trends impacting today’s manufacturing climate such as digitization, cyber security, the skills gap, and STEM.
In addition to launching the Digital Partner Program, Rockwell Automation reflected on a string of recent announcements, including the acquisition of Indian integrator, MESTECH. The announcement of collaborations of new partners like Accenture, ANSYS and EPLAN added strength to the program.
“Expanding human possibility is the driving force of Rockwell Automation, and that is reflected in the investments we make and the partners we collaborate with. We have unrivalled relationships with our partners and are always exploring opportunities to expand our work together, as well as add new partners to our ecosystem. Unlocking potential and productivity through automated and connected innovation is what we do, but by combining the technology and expertise of multiple stakeholders we can accelerate this process for our customers.
Particularly in a region as diverse as Asia Pacific, our partners are integral to our ability to create the most efficient and productive solutions for our customers. While we have partnered with MESTECH for a long time, our recent acquisition of the business further expands our capabilities. We have ambitious plans for 2020 in Asia Pacific and the acquisition of MESTECH brings new expertise to the table, reaching even more customers and bringing solutions to life even faster,” commented Joe Sousa, president, Asia Pacific, Rockwell Automation.
The Digital Partner Program is part of the Rockwell Automation PartnerNetwork program.
