Description
Industry Digitalization at speed and at scale
How leading companies are creating foundations to drive digitalization
Featuring Jose R. Favilla, Jr., Global Industry 4.0 Leader, IBM Corporation
presented by

The digitalization of factories drives adoption of advanced IT on the plant floor (analytics, AI, IoT) but creates an increasingly complex environment to manage.
Advances in hybrid cloud technologies, 5G, edge computing and cybersecurity are creating new possibilities for vendors and manufacturers to reduce costs, liberate data. However implementation requires convergence between IT and operational technologies (OT), proprietary (and siloed) industrial control and factory automation systems from multiple vendors.
This presentation will describe how leading companies are creating foundations to enable the digitalization journey at speed and at scale.
