Summary
We are convinced that ….
Industry is the lever for the multi-sector innovation and
economical and social progress in modern economies. We need
a competitive, sustainable Industrial Sector.
The 4th Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) relies on the
industrial digitalization and the use of advanced production
technologies
An efficient use of the technology must contribute to increase
of revenues and the definition and implementation of new
business models
This effort needs to be in place at regional and national level in
Europe, as other worldwide players may threaten leadership in
many areas
