Collaborative Automation Partner Program News

First Initi@tive in India with Collaborative Automation Partners

10 Collaborative Automation Partners (including; Acksys, Data-Linc, ECT International, Eplan, Hilscher, Hirschmann, Prosoft Technology, Vishay, Westermo and Weed Instruments) were invited to present how their products contribute to the new Schneider Electric Solution approach.

From September 11th to September 14th 2007, Schneider Electric welcomed 3,400 Indian customers, business partners, and media from all trades and professions at its international road show - Initi@tive 2007, at the Hyderabad International Convention Center (HICC) in Hyderabad, capital of Andhra Pradesh Province in South India.

This year, after Nice for Europe in January, Dubai for Oil & Gas market in February and Chengdu for China in April, it was the fourth showcase to let customers discover our solutions around two topics at the Center of the New Electric World:

> Energy Efficiency – Schneider Electric India has launched this program in the country, showing how to optimize energy costs - with savings of 10% to 30%, and how to make energy even more reliable and available.

> Automation Everywhere – Schneider Electric has shown how to deliver more flexibility and real-time control, in all markets, thanks to a new generation of intelligent automation devices.


Thanks to the great success of this event, Schneider Electric’s image in India has changed dramatically. From the booths to the technical seminars, from the opening ceremony to the gala dinner, the innovation and technology displayed as well as the sheer magnitude of the event were eye-openers to our customers.

Our Collaborative Automation partners could take an important part in this success, presenting on their booths their products, demonstrating how they are complementary to Schneider Electric’s offer as part of the automation solutions our customers are requesting.

Covering a wide range of domains such as Electrical CAD, Networks, Wireless solutions, Fiber Optic or Weighing systems, our partners could meet many customers, get many interesting contacts with end-users, system integrators and distributors that should lead to an increased business in India in a near future.


Some figures of the event:
> 230 Schneider Electric experts
> 10 partner companies
> 55 unique conferences and demonstrations
> 11,600 conference sessions attended by individual customers
> 75 booths
> 1 cybercafé
> 10,000 square-meter venue
