This year, MOVECAT has once again won recognition as an innovation leader among Germany’s medium-sized businesses: as part of the „TOP 100“ initiative, the enterprise from Nufringen, for the second year in succession, won inclusion in the list of Germany’s TOP 100 innovators. This outcome was the result of an analysis by the TOP 100’s Scientific Director, Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Franke. The event’s patron, Ranga Yogeshwar, together with Franke and Compamedia, made the presentation on 29 June 2018 at the awards ceremony held in the context of the 5th Summit of German Medium-sized Businesses in Ludwigsburg.
The award underlines MOVECAT’s expertise as a leading innovator in the field of kinetic solutions for stages, studios and shows. „Almost every challenge our customers bring us calls for innovation,“ says MOVECAT CEO Andrew Abele. „Since every event is different, a standard solution is seldom sufficient.“
Compamedia has been bestowing the TOP 100 accolade since 1993 on companies demonstrating exceptional ability to innovate and superior innovative success. The scientific direction is in the hands of Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Franke. Franke is both the founder and the chairman of the Institute for Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the University of Economics and Business Administration in Vienna. The scientific journalist Ranga Yogeshwar is the TOP 100’s patron. Project partners are the Fraunhofer Society for the Advancement of Applied Research and the German Association for Small and Medium-sized Businesses (BVMW).
