Automation engineering plays a central role in contemporary industrial transformations, serving as a driver of innovation, knowledge transfer, and human capital development. In a global scenario marked by digitalization and Industry 4.0, the dissemination of innovative practices through training, lectures, and technical events is an essential mechanism for competitiveness. This article analyzes the relevance of the contributions of experts in robotic welding and industrial automation, highlighting the role of institutions such as SENAI, Lincoln Electric, ESAB, Gerdau, and DALCA Brasil in creating knowledge networks and promoting technological advances that transcend national borders. The article seeks to demonstrate that innovation in automation engineering is not limited to the application of new technologies, but also involves the ongoing training of professionals and the integration of academia, industry, and society.
