Leadership
"By working together and integrating the technologies used in buildings, we can optimize them to reduce energy consumption and improve safety."

Louis R. Chênevert
President & CEO
"Buildings account for 38 percent of the world’s energy use, the largest category and half again more than all transportation combined. Substantial and attractive investments to reduce energy consumption and therefore carbon footprint are available now and more so prospectively."

George David
Retired Chairman
"At UTC, we recognize the fiscal challenge facing our nation."

Louis R. Chênevert
President & CEO
"I am pleased to share my thoughts about the need and opportunity to invest in basic research in building systems science to dramatically reduce the energy consumed and carbon emitted by buildings."

"Our experienced management team, strong balance sheet and focus on operational excellence allow us to see opportunities in these challenging times."

"Everything done today can be done better tomorrow. This is the belief that guides our product innovations, as well as energy reduction in our own facilities."

"We're a company built on innovation and this principle dates back to our founders."

"Middletown, Connecticut is special because it is where we assemble the most advanced military engines in the world…"

"Business ethics contributes to the bottom line. It goes beyond the avoidance of fines and penalties, and it goes beyond protection of the company’s reputation. Strong ethics creates a more engaged work force which generates increased customer satisfaction."

"I'm proud to lead a company that has a tremendous history of supporting the community."

"Our products are diverse, but the common denominator of every single thing we do is to convert energy to useful work, whether elevators or air conditioning or aerospace."

"We continue to build facilities, invest in employees in their local communities and cultivate customer relationships in the world's fastest growing markets."
