This document discusses the goals and plans of the Consortium for the 4th Industrial Revolution (C4IR) network. C4IR aims to create a global platform to enable investment in energy and other sectors impacted by the 4th industrial revolution. Its goals are to understand and discuss trends in these sectors and catalyze increased productivity. C4IR will function as a membership organization that holds global events and shares content. It plans to obtain members and hold smaller briefing events that will grow into larger conferences over time to extend its networks.
