Our CEO Dr. Norman Goldberg attended this year’s future conference in Leipzig as a Key Note speaker. Accompanied by other futurologists, business managers, investors and thought leaders he pointed out that climate change, resource scarcity, urbanization and the search for sustainable practices demand our immediate attention. In this context, the adhesive technology industry has a unique chance to bring about positive change. The automotive industry is an important application area for adhesives. With the increased use of lightweight materials such as plastics and composites in vehicles, the demand for adhesives that enable strong bonding of these materials is growing. And the increasing miniaturization of electronic devices requires special adhesives that enable precise bonding of components. From eco-friendly adhesives that reduce carbon footprints to smart adhesives that adapt to changing environments, he pointed out that we have the power to shape our world for the better. For him, the future we envision is one where boundaries blur and the seemingly impossible becomes the new norm.

As a company, we place great importance on thinking outside the box and exploring new avenues to develop innovative adhesive solutions in collaboration with our partners. That is why we recently launched a new open innovation initiative called pitch@tesa. This initiative provided an opportunity to potential partners to submit smart non-tape solutions that will be further developed and brought to market together with us. We were thrilled to receive a total of 90 entries through our platform, and after a careful evaluation, we invited four partners to present their ideas to all relevant decision makers. Ultimately, we awarded two exceptional, outstanding ideas and will be implementing them soon. Congratulations to the winners, such as the team from CurveSYS™ | Flexible Mesh IoT Sensors, who submitted a very innovative approach for "smart sensor solutions". We are excited about the upcoming journey working together with you.
