GMC Completes Two YearsApril 2013

Invensys Global Marketing Center (GMC)Completes Two Year

It was back in 2011 on April 25 that the GMC office started its operations out of the Koramanga-la facility for the first time. It has been a long way since its inception and it hasn’t been a smooth ride. But through the crests and troughs, the team has emerged each time potentially capable of performing and delivering better results.

Over the last two years, the center has tremendously grown to become a very essential part of Invensys’ business – offering a holistic and complete marketing solution for the industrial automation giant. It has grown to become the one-stop shop for multi discipline marketing functions in the areas of graphics and usability, promotional marketing, internal communication & product marketing.

The team here is committed to delivering consistent results making substantial savings of the company’s costs with the skill sets and expertise they bring along. At the GMC, the team is empowered and given the space to perform their best and learn as they grow. With a promising roadmap ahead, the success story of the GMC is definite to continue in the coming years too.

The Great

Pot LucK!

Technical Support, Sales and Pre-sales teams had a pot luck party on Monday, May 20, 2013. Each group brought an item or two and all participants had a great inter-team interaction over sumptuous food.

Did you know?

The word pot-luck appears in 16th century England, in the work of Thomas Nashe, and was used to mean "food provided for an unexpected or uninvited guest, the luck of the pot".
