Datateck was a confirmed presence at Innovation Day 2023, held on April 12th at the Bragança headquarters in São Paulo, Brazil. The event aimed to showcase new mobility-focused technologies. It brought together 68 representatives from 28 major corporations in the automotive sector, including automakers, systems providers, and electric harness manufacturers.
Innovation Day, which made its debut in 2017, was an initiative by the commercial vehicle sales team of TE Connectivity South America. It had its second edition in 2018, and due to the Coronavirus pandemic, there was a four-year hiatus before the event resumed in 2023.
The program featured presentations on technologies developed by TE and highlighted market trends. Additionally, attendees had the opportunity to take a “plant tour” of TE’s new advanced engineering laboratory facilities, where prototypes and validation of new components are conducted. The laboratory also collaborates with TE’s clients in South America for product development. TE’s production line in Brazil is among the most advanced in the company, incorporating high levels of automation, robotics, digitization, and connectivity in line with Industry 4.0 principles.
“This event showcases the full capabilities of TE South America in sourcing the most sophisticated components and demonstrates our technical expertise and readiness to develop customized, advanced engineering solutions in collaboration with our clients,” commented Alexandra Motta, Senior Director and General Manager of TE Connectivity for South America.
