TOP 100 Award: Ranga Yogeshwar honors VENSYS Elektrotechnik for innovative achievements
Überlingen - Recognition at the German SME Summit: Ranga Yogeshwar congratulates VENSYS Elektrotechnik GmbH from Diepholz on being awarded the TOP 100 seal. The award ceremony at the Summit took place on Friday, June 28, in Weimar for all SMEs that received the TOP 100 seal at the beginning of the year. The science journalist is accompanying the innovation competition, which is being held for the 31st time, as a mentor. In the scientific selection process, VENSYS was particularly convincing in size category B (51 to 200 employees) in the "External Orientation / Open Innovation" category. This is the third time that the company has been one of the top innovators.
The TOP 100 company portrait published on the occasion of the award states (excerpt):
VENSYS Elektrotechnik deals with environmentally friendly future technologies. Its hybrid converters ensure that the energy generated from solar and wind power is temporarily stored in a battery or fed into the grid. Rotor blade adjustment systems for wind turbines are also manufactured in Diepholz. "Made in Germany", that is, since VENSYS was founded in 2008. And it is also clear to the two new Managing Directors Thomas Peters and Wolfgang Feldmann that the company's production will remain in Diepholz. "If we want to stay ahead of the competition in terms of technology, we have to invest in our employees," emphasizes Thomas Peters. It is important to the top management that all 100 employees have the opportunity to contribute their ideas at any time. "We welcome it when someone thinks outside the box," says Wolfgang Feldmann. Input comes not only from the company's own workforce, but also, for example, through exchanges with universities and institutes as part of research projects.

TOP 100 is the only independent award for innovation management in Germany. It is not easy to get into the TOP 100, but the reputation is all the higher in the event of success. Two questions are at the heart of the TOP 100 assessment: Are innovations in companies a product of chance or the result of a systematic approach? And how successfully are ideas transformed into market successes? TOP 100 thus makes a statement about the probability that companies will continue to be successful in the future. The scientific management scrutinizes the applicants on the basis of more than 100 test criteria. The analysis is designed in such a way that it takes into account the special features of very different sectors and company sizes.
The decisive factor for being awarded the TOP100 seal is a detailed, methodologically sound questionnaire. The scientific management examines the applicants in five categories: Innovation-promoting top management, Climate of innovation, Innovative processes and organization, External orientation/open innovation, Innovation success.
