🚀 Embarking on my decade-long journey at the SPS IPC Drives Conference in Nuremberg! 🎇 today. Witnessing the evolution of this exhibition has been nothing short of a technological odyssey. From tangible products to embracing the Industry 4.0 wave, and now delving into the efficiency juggernaut of Industrial AI, we're not just observing changes; we're living through a manufacturing metamorphosis. 🌌 👁️🗨️ This year, my focus is laser-sharp on the avant-garde realms of Industrial AI, Industrial 5G, Software-defined Automation, Edge Computing, and the enigmatic world of Generative AI. These are more than just fleeting tech jargons; they are the new-age alchemists turning abstract concepts into tangible, value-driven realities, reshaping business landscapes. 🌐💼 🔥 Here are some notable company announcements that I have come across so far: 1️⃣ Siemens leads the charge with their theme "Accelerate Transformation," a convergence of the tangible and digital realms through Smart Manufacturing and Digital Twins. 🌍 Their dedication to digitalisation has paved the way for innovations like #IndustrialCopilot - a ground-breaking fusion of #chatgpt with Siemens' Automation arsenal. #digitalindustries Interestingly, I had a great insight into the Siemens Industry 5.0 proposition yesterday at their brand new tech campus in Erlangen. 2️⃣ ABB, a vanguard in its own right, showcases the pillars of Sustainable Industry, echoing the ethos of #Industry5.0, a phenomenon rapidly gaining traction across Europe and beyond. #sustainability 3️⃣ Belden Inc. steps into the spotlight, addressing the quintessential elements of industrial data management and digital transformation sans complexity. #industrialdata 4️⃣ Casting an eye towards the East, I'm intrigued by potential disruptors like Inovance Technology Europe. My intuition says the seismic shifts in automation might echo from China's innovative corridors. 🌏🔍 These 4 are just a tip of the ice-berg. There are 100s of others who I am yet to discover - and there will be a lot to unpack in the next 2 days.
