GALWAY, Ireland, March 12,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- TE Connectivity, a world leader
in connectors and sensors, has been named among the Clarivate Top
100 Global Innovators, an annual list of organizations that
prioritize innovation as a business strategy.
Innovation is a core value at TE, which has been named a Top 100
Global Innovator 12 times since Clarivate created the recognition
in 2012. As part of ongoing initiatives to deliver new innovations
to customers around the world, TE has more than 15,000 patents
granted or pending and invested more than $750 million in research, development and

report that provides the marketplace with insights into how
companies around the world are managing critical innovation
issues.
"We have a culture at TE that encourages our 9,000 global
engineers to consistently bring new ideas to help us be an even
stronger partner to our customers, whether it's an iteration that
advances technologies to the next level, or a completely new
solution," said CEO Terrence Curtin.
"Our innovative spirit is a major reason why our customers around
the world seek to co-create with us to solve for their
technological challenges."
The Top 100 Global Innovators rankings are generated by the

underpinned by rigorous research leveraging the proprietary Derwent
Strength Index, derived from the Derwent World Patents Index and
global patent data to measure the influence of ideas, their success
and rarity and the investment in inventions.
"Being recognized as a Top 100 Global Innovator is a remarkable
achievement given the pace of change - since 2000, we've seen an
80-fold increase in the volume of inventions," said Gordon Samson, president of intellectual
property at Clarivate. "Competition is more global than ever
before, and developments in one region can have a significant
global impact. Hyperconnectivity and technological convergence play
a pivotal role in driving innovation. The Top 100 organizations
target innovation at the deployment and diffusion of technology and
knowledge."
