Global Manufacturing and Industrialisation Summit | AI in Manufacturing and Industrial IoT sessions

1) Industry Innovations: AI Powered Robotics

Reinventing the shop floor to meet today’s demands

Advances in technology, including robotics, big data, machine learning, AI and IoT have substantially improved factory production since then. This session will shed insight on robotics trends that are driving the evolution of manufacturing automation and explore how robots could be used to meet our production needs during the remote-work nature of a pandemic - a capability no longer considered “optional”.

Participants:Paul Wellener, Industrial Products & Construction Leader, Deloitte United States

2) The conversion of Industrial IoT (IIoT) with e-commerce platforms

The online world of contactless commerce could be bolstered in ways that reshape consumer behaviour forever. One of the key technologies for industries to tackle the global pandemic is the Internet of Things (IoT) and its integration with e-commerce platforms. COVID-19 has caused a drastic shift in customer purchasing behaviour; forcing most companies to establish an e-store. It is important for manufacturer’s today to leverage the increasing preference of consumers to purchase online and reflect the purchasing patterns to predict and plan future production requirements in order for the business to thrive.

Participants:

  • Helena Lisachuk, Global IoT Leader, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited
  • Dr Eric Maiser, Head of Competence Centre & Future Business, VDMA
