For the first time, our partner  the HARTING Technology Group has been ranked as the top firm among German medium-sized companies. The most recent rankings by the "Die Deutsche Wirtschaft" (DDW) information network placed HARTING as the number 1 among the 10,000 most important medium-sized companies in the country.

The DDW research team regularly evaluates medium-sized firms that are majority-owned by German family-owned companies posting sales of up to one billion euros. The ranking is based on some two dozen indicators and is determined by way of a continuously updated process factoring in sales, employee numbers, research and development costs, ISO certifications, the availability of dual-study programs, and the number of research collaborations and university partnerships. HARTING scored top ratings on all points. The DDW ranking underlines the global player’s "significant growth course." DDW stated that HARTING’s products and solutions have positioned it as one of the winners of the digitisation trend and that the company was in strong demand as a partner for electromobility.

As Philip Harting, CEO of the HARTING Technology Group, expressed his satisfaction with the company’s number 1 ranking among German medium-sized companies: "We regard this distinction as the recognition of our achievements and an obligation to maintain this ranking through our work and our products and services."
