At its PartnerNetwork Conference in Orlando, Florida, Rockwell Automation recognized the global partners that demonstrated their dedication and contributed to the success of the industrial-automation and digital-transformation company.
The invitation-only event, held March 18-21 at the Hyatt Regency Orlando, was focused on how to redefine possibilities together, grow through collaboration, reinforce the value of the global partner community and advance customer success. It featured keynote presentations from Rockwell Automation leadership and guest speakers, open discussions with partner program managers, networking and breakout sessions.
Following the 2023 event, which was held in California, the third annual Rockwell Automation PartnerNetwork Awards honored the achievements of organizations that successfully planned and executed innovative and transformational offerings. These organizations found ways to impact one or more areas of their businesses through the application of Rockwell and other partners’ digital and disruptive technologies.
Two organizations, Gray Solutions and Cybertrol Engineering, were repeat winners from last year.
“The nominees and award winners all demonstrated an incredible dedication to customer success, so I would like to congratulate all our partners that entered and those who won,” said Nicole Denil, vice president, global market access, Rockwell Automation. “Rockwell Automation is as strong as it is largely because of our PartnerNetwork, one of our main differentiators.
