We had the pleasure of hosting Guanyu Zhou at Camozzi Automation Shanghai, the first Chinese driver in the history of Formula 1®, currently racing with Stake F1® Team KICK Sauber
Zhou Guanyu’s visit gave attendees the opportunity to experience the life of a Formula 1® driver and the world of motorsport up close. The event highlighted how racing and industrial automation can intersect, creating new opportunities for innovation and knowledge sharing.
In this context, where high-speed motorsport meets advanced industrial technology, our collaboration with Stake F1® Team KICK Sauber and Sauber Technologies reflects a shared commitment to technological excellence. This partnership is driven by a common ambition: to push boundaries and achieve new milestones in our respective fields.


During the company tour, we guided Zhou Guanyu through our operations, showcasing our commitment to lean manufacturing and production excellence in the development of components for industrial automation.
The visit also provided an opportunity to highlight our investments in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Intelligent Manufacturing. During the event, guests—including employees from Camozzi Automation Shanghai and Innse-Berardi China, both part of the Group—had the chance to interact directly with the driver.
