What small achievements did TE unlock in the ESG space in fiscal year 2022? Let’s hand in an assignment

01 Sustainable Development

TE continues to reduce carbon emissions in its manufacturing operations and supply chain by implementing technical energy efficiency improvements, conducting “Energy saving treasure Hunt” programs, purchasing international renewable energy certificates, and partnering with key suppliers. In addition, TE works closely with Chinese customers to jointly promote the green transformation of the industry and achieve sustainable economic development through unremitting innovation.

02 Future Engineer

PXIE-8861

TE has diversified school-enterprise cooperation with many universities and vocational and technical schools in China, and supports “STEM” education and promotes talent training through interactive and cooperative ways such as TE scholarship (teaching) fund, technical competitions, technical lectures, co-construction laboratories, and student clubs.

For example, the TE AI Cup competition focusing on artificial intelligence and the training of the next generation of engineering talents has run for the fourth time, the scale of the event has expanded year after year, and the latest one in full swing has attracted 26 universities and 40 student teams around the world. Let’s look forward to this year’s finals.

In addition, the manual welding skills competition jointly held by TE and the Electronic Information School of Sichuan Modern Vocational College has also been successfully “completed” in the near future. The cooperation between TE and the School of Electronic Information of Sichuan Modern Vocational College has reached ten years, during which the connotation of cooperation has been continuously explored and deepened, and a comprehensive and deep collaborative education model has been formed. The manual welding skills competition held this time is also intended to stimulate the “craftsman spirit” of modern students, to promote the high-quality development of the school and regional economy, and to contribute to the “Made in China 2025”.

03 Community Co-construction

TE supports community building and strives to make a positive impact on the communities where we operate, organizing “Community Ambassador groups” across the country. Based on the actual needs of the local community, employees decide which projects they will support, and volunteer to care and give back to the community.
