(The XXX are names)
I want to maintain the third person, but none of my ideas sound really good...
My ideas were "Based on our trust on the automation and digitization of the sector...", "Committing to the automation and...".
What do you think?

Based on their commitment to...

"Drive" sounds dynamic, so that could work as well:
"In their drive to promote automation and digitisation in the sector, XXX... "
