“84% of [mid-sized manufacturing] leaders view technological innovation as their top priority in the next three to five years. Innovation around products and services (80%), sustainability (79%), business model transformation (77%), and digital experience (77%) also made the list”.

Digitalization, Industry 4.0 innovation, SaaS and the cloud promise an era of smarter production, intelligent supply chain management, customization-at-cost, Manufacturing-as-a-Service and significant emissions and waste reduction. An age of agile manufacturing that can shift to support new service lines and establish new production facilities in a fraction of the time.
