UrBC, Yekaterinburg, June 27, 2017. Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works (MMK) coordinated Fresh Idea on the eve of Inventor’s Day: the event was aimed at involving more company workers into ongoing improvement activity at the plant, the company press service reports.

This is the second time the event has been coordinated at the plant. MMK Group’s workers have an opportunity to share their improvement proposals and get a prize. Last year, since orange was chosen as the event’s logo, all of the Fresh Idea participants received some actual oranges and souvenirs bearing the logo. This year, the event was pineapple-themed.

‘Everyone who submitted their improvement proposals on a special website were treated to tropical fruits and other gifts. Those who submitted just one proposal were given a pineapple, those with two proposals also received a notebook and a pen, and those with three proposals got a pineapple, a notebook, a pen, and a T-shirt,’ says Sergey Denisov from MMK R&D Center Development Group.
