Welcome to Cyient Communique, your monthly view into how we are delivering on our promise of Designing Tomorrow Together. This issue focuses on INNOVATION, an absolute essential in the digital era, and a catalyst for business growth. From thought-provoking virtual sessions with leaders to launching a unique platform to boost innovation in Indian healthcare, collaborating with an educational institute to revolutionize curriculum, and participating in ESRI IMGIS to showcase leading-edge GIS technologies, this edition highlights the efforts we have undertaken to foster innovation at all levels.
In the latest #CXOCyience forum, Cyient hosted an exciting live discussion featuring top executives from BT and VolkerWessels Telecom who shared their unique insights and perspectives on designing an intelligent infrastructure. The conversation included emerging areas such as 5G and other innovative technologies that enable new business opportunities and accelerate the need for digital networks.

The utility industry is undergoing a digital transformation. Geospatial-backed location intelligence can help the industry take the digital leap. To discuss the nuances of the role geospatial technologies can play for utilities, we initiated a session with Kevin Prouty, Group Vice President for IDC Energy and Manufacturing Insights.
Kevin threw light on how GIS is the core component for utilities to manage their assets and customers. The evolution of GIS is a specialty within a utility organization to being a truly accessible and dynamic data source.
The ESRI Infrastructure Management and GIS conference took place on Oct 27-30. The virtual crossover event provided attendees a learning opportunity, presenting a valuable experience for organizations to move their location intelligence and GIS forward. Cyient was a Silver Sponsor of the highly acclaimed ISRI IMGIS, 2020.
Cyient hosted a virtual booth, displaying leading-edge solutions to help drive utilities into the digital era. We also conducted a 60-minute Simulive session on 'Enabling Digital Utilities' where our talented team demonstrated digital solutions that can enable OT/IT convergence, as well as grid modernization.

Cyient's MedTech Connect platform brings together start-ups, academia, industry, and government bodies to collaborate on developing advanced medtech solutions.
Millions of people in India still do not have access to primary healthcare. MedTech Connect aims to change the status quo and enable affordable healthcare delivery in every corner of the country with cutting-edge tech innovations. It also works towards developing unique business models that minimize cost and maximize the reach of these technologies.
Cochlear implants need a consistent and reliable power supply to ensure accuracy. AnSem, a Cyient company, addressed this problem by developing a bespoke 24V power management system with a Single Inductor Multiple Output (SIMO) switched inductor regulator. The SIMO derives three different output supplies, which share the same inductor. This is important since the inductor must be an external component, with cochlear implants becoming smaller and lighter.
Glaucoma is a common disease that can lead to blindness if not treated on time. A symptom of glaucoma is an increase in intraocular pressure. AnSem, a Cyient company, developed an ASIC for Sensimed to help Sensimed AG design a single-use contact lens called Sensimed Triggerfish that can monitor fluctuations in intraocular pressure. The ASIC digitizes the MEMS sensor reading and transmits the measurements back to a recorder.
Cyient, a member of the Emergent Alliance - a diverse collaboration of corporates, individuals, NGOs, data specialists, and governments - took the lead in a data science project by using predictive analytics to shed light on supply chain stress and the global response to COVID-19.
To gain insights on possible return-to-normalcy scenarios, data scientists at Cyient modeled data to predict a timeline and worked on drawing data from a dataset published by the University of Oxford. Cyient used its deep learning forecasting algorithm based on a neural net derivative technique, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM).
It is often seen that the skills needed in a work environment are not taught in colleges. To change this and reduce the skill gap, Cyient has collaborated with Warangal-based SR University. Cyient will help SR University develop an industry-oriented curriculum focused on advanced manufacturing systems, such as design for additive manufacturing.
Cyient will share its expertise to further faculty and student research at SR University. The goal is to advance India's additive manufacturing industry, which is a key tenet of the 'Make In India' initiative, and develop industry-ready engineers.
Cyient was placed in the top quadrant in the Zinnov Zones annual ratings for overall ER&D Services for the seventh consecutive year. We maintained our “leadership” position in the aerospace, industrial, medical devices, telecom, and the software-defined network-NFV verticals. We were also placed in the “established and niche player” quadrant for IoT Services, an annual rating from Zinnov for global technology service providers.
Zinnov, a leading global management and strategy consulting firm, assessed 60 global engineering R&D services companies based on specialization, R&D practice maturity, innovation and IP, ecosystem linkages, and customer input.
