Harting Americas was visited by The Minister of Economic Affairs, Dr. Bernd Althusmann from Lower Saxony, Germany, and a delegation of 40 entrepreneurs, as part of a delegation trip to the United States.  During their trip, the delegation met with business leaders and politicians.

The group toured the Harting Americas production facility, which has had substantial growth in the last three years.

“There’s incredible growth potential here in the US for technology companies,” said Jon DeSouza, president and CEO, Harting Americas. “For example, we’re predicting double-digit CAGR across the board in electrification technologies – electric passenger vehicles, off-highway vehicles including agriculture equipment, and energy storage application.  One thing is clear, to be a global leader in technology you need to have a strong presence in the US.”

During their visit the German company explained its focus on technologies in the US, including vehicle electrification, semiconductor production, data centers, and single pair Ethernet.

“The USA continues to be a driving force in the development of new technologies,” said Althusmann. “We see ideal points of contact here, especially in digitally-driven topics such as medical technology, life science, biotech, or future mobility.”
