Description

Cummins Inc. tells a remarkable tale of grit and ingenuity, from its scrappy 1919 diesel engine pitches in rural Indiana to becoming a $49 billion industrial powerhouse powering trucks, mines, and data centers worldwide. This century-old titan faces its most daunting crossroads yet: can it transform from a diesel dominator into an electrification leader amid rising emissions regulations, evolving customer needs, and fierce global competition? Through bold innovation, patient capital, savvy partnerships—including a game-changing China strategy—and even a costly emissions scandal, Cummins showcases the relentless complexities of managing technology disruption while safeguarding legacy strengths.
