Sustainability & Manufacturing 2023 | IDC | 20 June 2023 | Vienna House Andel`s, Ogrodowa 17, 91-065 Lodz, Poland

Disruptive innovations are changing the Manufacturing Industry as we know it. The future of the Manufacturing Industry is dependent on digital transformation.
After years of deployment of digital technologies into manufacturing companies’ IT, operations, and non/core processes, the question is how to move forward. How to achieve a competitive advantage through leveraging the convergence of technology, automation, and humans while being sustainable and socially responsible. The customer gets into a centre of gravity and so do the workers. Disruptive innovations are enabling what we like to call the “digital-first approach” - a business that is driven by data, intelligence/based and people augmented with technology. Achieving operational excellence and sustainability in operations, enabling global manufacturing intelligence across production sites and the supply chain, ensuring production quality, handling the highly volatile demand, and tackling the workforce shortage - these are the key challenges manufacturing companies are facing.

Why Attend?
At this event, we will discuss IT tools, strategies, and best practices in manufacturing operations management that can help to meet business challenges. Our analysts and guest speakers are going to cover different operational processes – from digital factory and production, manufacturing execution, and plant automation to asset management and plant sustainability. Register to get professional guidance that will help you make informed decisions. Cannot join us in person? Register anyway, we will share the materials afterwards.
