Join us for this Timely Discussion!

The manufacturing industry is under constant pressure to innovate, as changing customer preferences and external market demands have required manufacturers to be more flexible to meet the fast changes in product specifications. Manufacturers face challenges to decrease product errors, minimize time to market, and automate processes. Forward-looking manufacturers are investing in digital technologies that are shaping the industry, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, advanced robotics, the internet of things, virtual reality, and digital twin infrastructure.

The key questions we will be discussing are:

How do manufacturers select technology partners to fulfill digitalization, which we know is prioritized by 66% of companies?

What factors hinder adoption of digitalization in manufacturing?

Apart from AR/VR, AMR tracking, and Line Robotics, what other critical use cases demand edge compute capabilities on the plant floor?

What key factors should be considered when assessing vendors providing Edge technologies for manufacturing applications?

How are workforce skills evolving amidst the digital innovation in manufacturing?

During this Virtual Think Tank, Frost & Sullivan’s Steve Thomas, Sr Industry Director of the ICT-Network Services practice, will moderate a discussion around adaptable edge infrastructure with leading European and US Manufacturers.
