Representing the Netherlands
During the CES 2022 Innovation Awards from January 5 to 8, 2022, UMS will represent the Netherlands alongside 69 other Dutch startups and scale-ups in Las Vegas. CES (Consumer Electronics Show) attracts over 170,000 companies and investors from 160 countries. In preparation, the participating companies will follow a training program provided by the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, Foreign Affairs, and the Netherlands Enterprise Agency. Traditionally, before the actual exhibition, the organization presents awards to a select number of inventions demonstrating “excellent design and engineering.”
Increasing recognition
UMS is gaining recognition in the construction sector due to collaborations with an increasing number of prominent machine manufacturers, for whom electric powertrains are supplied. An extensive product range is already available, including mini and midi excavators, wheeled and crawler excavators, compact wheel loaders, cranes, telehandlers, rollers, and even asphalt pavers. The company has specialized in developing a universal conversion kit, prioritizing safety, sustainability, and reliability.
