Description

The industrial landscape is undergoing a radical transformation. The Digital Industrial Accelerators Program aims to harness the power of the latest innovations in the commercial world and apply them to the manufacturing sector. These innovations include

• The metaverse: a virtual environment where people can interact, create, and share experiences

• Mixed reality: a technology that blends the physical and digital worlds, enhancing human capabilities and perception

• Edge: a distributed computing model that brings data and processing closer to the source, enabling faster and more efficient operations

• Software-defined networks: a network architecture that allows dynamic and flexible management of network resources and services

These innovations have the potential to create new value for industrial customers who have realized the importance of digital transformation after the pandemic. They also have attracted the interest of non-industrial players, especially from the information technology sector, who are eager to explore and exploit the opportunities in manufacturing.

This report discusses 10 innovations and their impact on the industrial sector, and provides insights and recommendations for industrial vendors and customers to leverage them to gain a competitive edge.
