A unified digital platform to empower manufacturers to become automation specialists
Vention, a leading digital manufacturing automation platform (MAP), was recognized for the third time as part of the 2023 Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ awards program for its rapid revenue growth, entrepreneurial spirit, and bold innovation.
Celebrating its 26th anniversary, the program recognizes Canada’s 50 fastest-growing technology companies based on the highest revenue-growth percentage over the past four years. Vention ranks 29 with a 636 percent in revenue growth from 2019 to 2023.
Vention is democratizing the $180B+ industrial automation market. Since 2016, Vention has empowered high-mix manufacturers to implement industrial automation through cloud software and a modular hardware ecosystem. The self-serve platform combines a suite of easy-to-use engineering software and plug-and-play automation components, enabling manufacturing professionals to design, automate, order,deploy, and operate automated equipment directly from their web browsers, erasing the boundaries between the digital and physical worlds.
“Vention’s commitment to make industrial automation accessible has never been stronger. As the manufacturing landscape grapples with labor shortages, rising salaries, and a surge of localized production, the need for innovative solutions to automate factory operations is on the rise,” said Etienne Lacroix, CEO and Co-Founder of Vention. “With a focus on ease of use, Vention’s Manufacturing Automation Platform (MAP) empowers every manufacturing professional to become an automation specialist.”
