Smart industry

This is the time of smart industry

Digitalisation. The latest production technology. And smart connections between people, machines, and products. Designing, producing, and delivering products with unprecedented speed and efficiency: that's the power that digitalisation brings to the manufacturing industry. And it doesn't stop there.

Smart manufacturing can also ensure that the manufacturing industry can respond more quickly to societal challenges. Consider the need to develop more sustainable production methods and to be able to make adjustments in mass production to meet individual customer needs, so that supply better matches demand.

In this time of geopolitical tensions, a transition to smart manufacturing can make a significant contribution to Europe's quest for greater strategic autonomy.
