Green Light Multiplex Company Limited Achieves ISO 56001 Innovation Management System Certification

We are pleased to announce that we have awarded ISO 56001:2024 Innovation management system certification to Green Light Multiplex Company Limited (GLM), marking an important milestone in the company’s commitment to building a systematic and sustainable approach to innovation.

This certification covers the design, innovation, development, integration and commercialization of GLM’s Internet of Things (IoT) lighting measurement systems, intelligent lighting control systems and robotic solutions for smart infrastructure and industrial applications.

ISO 56001 is the first international standard for innovation management systems, providing a structured framework for organizations to establish, implement, maintain and continually improve their innovation management capabilities.

For technology-driven companies, transforming ideas into sustainable commercial value requires more than individual expertise. A structured innovation management system supports clear processes, responsibilities and governance, while enabling valuable knowledge and experience to be systematically captured and retained.

By implementing ISO 56001, enables GLM to strengthen its innovation governance and speed up its acceleration from the development of its award-winning intelligent inspection robot to, ultimately, a mini special inspection robot product line.  The standard provides the structured processes, risk management and continuous improvement mechanisms needed to turn GLM’s advancements into scalable solutions for industrial applications, enhancing the company’s competitiveness in the smart lighting and smart solution market.

Our independent third-party audit also provided GLM with valuable insights and a practical roadmap for continual improvement, further strengthening its innovation governance and demonstrating its commitment to internationally recognized innovation management practices.

Ms. Miranda Kwan, Director of Business Assurance, SGS in Hong Kong, said: “Great ideas are only the beginning. Sustainable innovation requires a systematic approach that connects strategy, people, processes, knowledge and performance. ISO 56001 helps organizations turn innovation from initiative into a structured organizational capability, ensuring valuable knowledge can be effectively managed, retained and built upon. For companies such as Green Light Multiplex with ambitions to expand internationally, independent certification can also provide greater confidence to global customers, buyers and business partners. “

Mr. Daniel Wong, Executive Director, GLM in Hong Kong, said: “Achieving ISO 56001 professional certification enables GLM to establish a structured, leadership-driven innovation management system highly aligned with the company’s overall corporate strategy. This standard sets out a clear and rigorous innovation governance framework that secures leadership commitment, well-defined division of responsibilities, and transparent decision-making processes. It ensures that innovation is no longer a product of the spontaneous initiatives of individual employees or random outcomes, but is a replicable, measurable, and scalable core organizational capability. 

ISO 56001 allows GLM sustain stable and competitive innovation momentum across the Hong Kong, Singapore and UK markets. In the long run, implementing ISO 56001 will elevate GLM’s corporate reputation, enable the expansion of its partnership networks and strengthen its long-term competitive advantages and market resilience across the smart city, robotics technology and smart lighting domains.”
