Innovation plays key role in largest product launch in
company history
For the fifth time since 2011, Xerox (NYSE: XRX) has been
recognized as a Top 100 Global Innovator. The report by Clarivate
Analytics, formerly part of Thomson Reuters, announced its 2016
honors for the most innovative corporations and institutions in the
world determined by analyzing proprietary data. The program was
formerly known as the Thomson Reuters Top 100 Global
Innovators.
“Since its founding more than 100 years ago, Xerox has been a
company built upon innovation,” said Steve Hoover, recently named
CTO of Xerox. “With more than 12,000 active U.S. patents and a
focus on setting the page free, we are finding new ways to improve
the flow of work in the office be it in digital or paper form and
developing new ways to print not only on paper, but even directly
onto complex objects or directly print electronics for smart labels
and packaging.”
Later this year, Xerox will roll out the largest product launch
in its history with 29 new devices. Xerox’s focus on growing its
global leadership in digital print technology and services will
help customers innovate how they communicate, connect and work more
productively.
“This has been a stellar year for Xerox and our innovation
team,” added Hoover. We continue to be one of the world’s top 20
patent recipients, we have launched exciting new products like the
Xerox Brenva™ HD Production Inkjet Press, the Direct to Object
Inkjet Printer, the Xerox Healthcare Multifunction Printer
Solution, the 6515 A4 color printer and we have received continuing
recognition for our people like PARC scientist Alex Hegyi, who was
named by MIT Technology Review in its list of top innovators under
35.”
Within the research labs, PARC is working on a number of
projects, such as developing wireless “Peel-and-Stick” sensors for
the U.S. Dept. of Energy and vanishing autonomous air vehicles
through a DARPA grant. In Europe, researchers have developed Smart
Scan, a mobile app that makes it easy to troubleshoot and interact
with complex products and systems.
