Multi-complex challenges & all-encompassing digitalization - What will manufacturing look like in the future?

The manufacturing industry is facing the greatest upheaval and change since the advent of mass production. The status quo will no longer suffice. While resilience has remained a key theme, innovations such as IIoT, advanced analytics and automation, and trends such as predictive maintenance, digital twins and intelligent automation are creating the megatrend of smart manufacturing. Moving from traditional automation to fully connected, integrated and flexible systems, smart factories are changing the entire production chain - how products are designed, manufactured, delivered and sold. These innovations will create highly intelligent, information-driven factories and distributed / networked business models that can respond quickly to change and deliver entirely new, customized smart products and services.
