Industry 4.0 Web Cafe

A 20% increase in equipment utilisation, a 15% reduction in manufacturing costs…Those are some of the concrete real digital transformation benefits underlined by the manufacturing consulting company Aeva.

However attractive the benefits are, an essential question remains: how do you achieve digital transformation? The European industrial landscape is made up mostly of SMEs. As a matter of fact, in 2015, enterprises employing fewer than 250 persons represented 99 % of all enterprises in the EU.

Do these businesses have the knowledge, the funds, to digitalise their factory and substantially improve their productivity?

Representatives of 5 European manufacturing digitisation initiatives, Integradde, DIMOFAC, Penelope, LevelUp and I4MS, are meeting up around the time of a coffee break, to discuss how to make the factories of the future possible not only on paper but also on the assembly lines.
