"The Texas A&M SAE Formula Electric Team’s mission is to
design, build, and test a competitive electric formula-style race
car. We aim to foster a sustainable learning environment with
multidisciplinary operations in order to execute industry-relevant
projects,” said Holden Sparr, Texas A&M team representative.
“Perficient’s partnership is more than a sponsorship; it’s an
engaging collaboration that directly contributes to providing
practical, hands-on experiences and learning opportunities vital
for empowering the next generation of engineers."

industry experts champion a digital-first, customer-driven approach
to connected vehicles, electrification, and omnichannel
