Hitachi Zosen Inova becomes Kanadevia Inova: A new name and a renewed commitment to a future free of wasted waste Why the new name? The rebranding initiative is driven by our parent company Kanadevia Corporation and represents a clear step forward in unifying our global presence. At the same time, it reinforces Kanadevia Inova’s operations and drive for innovation. What is the meaning of Kanadevia Inova? The name “Kanadevia” derives from the Japanese word “Kanaderu”, which means to play or perform music in harmony, and the Latin word “via”, meaning the way. So Kanadevia represents a promise where people and nature, technology and the planet go hand in hand. “Inova” signals our continuous drive for innovation and excellence in all we do.
