Wearable devices, hands-free technology, augmented reality and
other tools of the modern digital worker are on display today at
Lincoln Financial Field as part of Exelon’s fourth Innovation Expo,
an event bringing employees, vendors and outside experts together
to explore how technology can contribute to a safer, more
productive and more efficient work environment.
“Fostering a culture of innovation is critical to the utility
industry in an era defined by the rapid integration of electronic
digital devices and technology at home and in the workplace,”
Exelon President and CEO Chris Crane said. “Events like this
empower employees to generate new ideas and bring them to the
forefront so that we can quickly deploy them in the field. At the
same time, we learn from other companies and experts who are
leveraging new workforce technology to better serve customers.”
Today’s event focuses on the digital worker and the growth of
electronic communications, applications and other technology to
increase productivity, collaboration, innovation and safety in
office, field and industrial settings. The event highlights
Exelon’s efforts to incorporate emerging technologies into its
business and encourage employee innovation to solve business
problems. Previous Innovation Expos focused on big data and the
Internet of things.
At the Expo, more than 20 companies will showcase innovations --
such as wearable technologies that enhance safety and security for
workers -- and offer insights into how to inspire innovation,
incorporate new technology and empower today’s digital workers.
In addition to Exelon, executives and technology experts from
companies such as British Petroleum, Kickstarter, Blue Cross Blue
Shield Association and McDonald’s will offer their insights on
technology and the workplace.
