Stream: Research & Innovation

COVID-19 has accelerated the adoption of digital technologies. With traditional manufacturing value chains being disrupted and customer expectations constantly shifting, more businesses are exploring Industry 4.0 technologies and looking for smart, cost-effective ways to integrate these within their organisation. Yet, the gap between exploration, adoption and investment is still evident.

This webinar is designed for leaders of manufacturing businesses and will showcase the experiences of a selection of Australian manufacturing SMEs who are advancing and transforming their business models using Industry 4.0.

David Chuter will lead a discussion on accelerating the uptake of Industry 4.0 technologies and digital business models within Australian manufacturing. Building on last year’s conference outcomes, he will be joined by a panel of manufacturing experts who have embraced Industry 4.0 and invested in technology and digital business models to create value and drive their business forward. They will share their Industry 4.0 story, outlining which approach they have taken, what challenges they had to overcome and where they are now seeing the benefits.

Industry experts from a range of sectors including Whiteley Corporation, Air Radiators, SleepCorp and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) Rapido will join David Chuter in the panel discussion.
