2020 is an anniversary year for ADS-TEC. The company has now been on the market for 40 years. We look back with thanks and joy and are proud of what has been made possible with our customers, suppliers, partners and especially our team. Technology and innovation for demanding markets and customers are our drive and motivation.
Since the beginnings in 1980 - founded as FRITZ electronic GmbH by Hermann Fritz and Hans-Hermann Speidel - a lot has happened in 40 years. Today the two operative business units "ads-tec Industrial IT GmbH", the "ads-tec Energy GmbH" as a joint venture with BOSCH as well as all supporting development and service companies are located under the ADS-TEC Holding GmbH.
The name ADS-TEC initially stood for "Automation, Data and System Technology". Today the headline for the group is comprehensive "Advanced System Technologies" as a consistent further development of the innovation and technology areas.
In 40 years there have been solid business developments but also crises and elementary upheavals. The current disruptive technological upheavals and the corona pandemic are certainly among the special and extraordinary events. However, with future-oriented technology and innovation it will continue after every upheaval. We are glad that we have focused on the areas of "digitalization" and "transformation of the energy system" in good time and with foresight.
Thomas Speidel, CEO of ADS-TEC thanks the whole team: "It is a pleasure to work with this team on elementary future topics".
