Forum Industrie 4.0 Meets the Industrial Internet

摘要

The world's biggest forum on digitalization in manufacturing about Industrie 4.0 and its benefits, implementation strategies and data security implications. Bit by bit, the Industrial Internet of Things is changing the face of manufacturing and opening up major opportunities for growth and efficiency. The first companies to upgrade their factories to Industrie 4.0 technology are reporting productivity gains of up to 50 percent. The Industrial Internet of Things does, however, raise a number of challenges and concerns that call for well-considered responses. "That is where the FORUM INDUSTRIE 4.0 comes in. It's a key information sharing and discussion platform," says Marc Siemering, Deutsche Messe's Senior Vice-President responsible for HANNOVER MESSE. "And we're running it in partnership with the VDMA and ZVEI industry associations and the IIC, so it will feature all the big movers and shakers of industrial integration. The benefit for visitors is that they will be able to gain a global overview of strategies, standards, business models and data security issues in the Industie 4.0 space."
