The event — hosted in Mumbai — brings together executives, plant leaders, operators, and technology innovators to showcase how manufacturers across India can rapidly shift from legacy systems of record to true systems of action, where every employee, every machine, every process, every decision drives outcome in real time.

With global manufacturing standing at an inflection point, Champions of Manufacturing India will spotlight three pillars shaping the future of industrial performance:

  • Adaptive ERP: The intelligent manufacturing backbone built for implementation speed, scale and measurable impact.
  • Redzone Connected Workforce: Proven to unlock productivity, workforce engagement, and quality gains directly on the factory floor.
  • Champion AI: The Agentic AI engine amplifying human decision-making and accelerating operational action across the plant.

Leaders will gain exclusive access to QAD | Redzone’s executive team — including CEO Sanjay Brahmawar, President Manufacturing ERP Amit Sharma, and GM India & Head of Engineering Rajeev Purohit — delivering a direct “Vision from the Top” on how Indian manufacturers can modernize at Champion Pace without rip-and-replace disruption.

A defining moment: Two decades behind us. The next era ahead.

“India’s manufacturing energy is unmatched — ambitious, capable, and ready to lead. Celebrating 20 years in India is more than an anniversary. It’s recognition of our partnership with India’s most dynamic manufacturers, and a commitment to the next decade of acceleration,” said Sanjay Brahmawar, CEO of QAD | Redzone. “Champions of Manufacturing in Mumbai will bring tangible strategies — not theory — and direct access to the technologies enabling frontline productivity, AI-driven decision making, and system-wide results at Champion Pace.”

A highlight session will feature Jayanti Herbs & Spice, with CEO Milan Shah and his operations team sharing how Redzone is transforming the frontline through real-time visibility, engagement, and waste reduction — and how fast-time-to-impact technology can unlock measurable output improvements in weeks, not years.

The next 20 years: Built in India. Built for the world.

“Twenty years of QAD India is a story of partnership, engineering excellence, and belief in what manufacturers here can achieve,” said Rajeev Purohit, GM India & Head of Engineering at QAD | Redzone. “This celebration — together with our November product release — signals a new chapter. One powered by Adaptive ERP, Redzone Connected Workforce and Champion AI. We’re proud of the past two decades — and even more excited for the future we are building from India to the world.”

The event marks QAD’s expanded investment in India — not only as a strategic customer region, but as a global engineering hub powering the next wave of innovation in Champion AI, automation, interoperability, and the intelligent factory of the future.
