Industry 4.0: from Factory to Smactory
It is August the 18th of 2014 when a German government official press ‘post’ on an update called: "Zukunftsprojekt Industrie 4.0”, not knowing that this Industry number will complete transform the way we traditionally did business. Where business transformation in prior times mostly affected individual entities of businesses, this transformation affects the whole business eco-system. The announcement, posted on the “Bundesministerium fur Bildung und Forschung ” or, in English, the:”Federal ministry of education and Research” quoted the following key message:
“The future project Industry 4.0 aims to enable the German industry in a position to be ready for the future of production. Industrial production will be characterized by strong personalization of products under the conditions of high flexibilised (high-volume) production, the extensive integration of customers and business partners in business and value creation processes and the coupling of production and quality services.”
Industry 4.0, where disruption meets the manufacturing industry
According the Cambridge Online Dictionary is revolution something that is: ‘a very important change in the way that people do things’ or ‘one complete circular movement of something’. That Industry 4.0 is a industrial revolution is an understatement. Industry 4.0 is a big disruption in the economy & the way we (will) do business in the future. Before deep dive directly into Industry 4.0 let us have a closer look to the road towards it...

The Five Biggest Education And Training Technology Trends In 2022Bernard Marr
The education sector is undergoing a digital transformation. Here we look at the key edtech trends for 2022, such as remote learning, lifelong learning subscription services, more immersive learning technology (AR and VR), AI and automation in the classroom, as well as Nano-learning.
Industrial revolutions are momentous events. By most reckonings, there have been only three. The first was triggered in the 1700s by the commercial steam engine and the mechanical loom. The harnessing of electricity and mass production sparked the second, around the start of the 20th century. The computer set the third in motion after World War II.
It might seem too soon to proclaim that the fourth industrial revolution, spurred by interconnected digital technology, has begun. But Henning Kagermann, the head of the German National Academy of Science and Engineering (Acatech), did exactly that in 2011, when he used the term Industrie 4.0 to describe a proposed government-sponsored industrial initiative.
When you look closely at the rapid pace of digitization in industry today, the name doesn’t seem hyperbolic at all. It is a signal of sweeping change that is rapidly transforming many companies and may catch others by surprise.
Industry 4.0 is a name given to the current trend of automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies. It includes cyber-physical systems, the Internet of things, cloud computing and cognitive computing. Industry 4.0 is commonly referred to as the fourth industrial revolution.
This is a conversation with Simon Spencer, B. Eng., Lean Manufacturing and Industry 4.0 Expert at VKS, who accepted to share his decades-long experience with us.

The confluence of powerful hand held devices, and a broadband network at home has created the desire for employees to expect the same level of connectedness in the enterprise space/workplace. Businesses are feeling the pressure to develop a hybrid support approach that also includes Gen Y and Gen Z workers, who are technology savvy and would like to use these devices in the workplace.

Benefits and Hurdles of AI In The Workplace – What Comes Next?CSCJournals
During the last few years, there has already been a solid discussion and political will, transversal to most European countries, on the need to invest in prevention, promoting healthier living environments and person-centred digital solutions. In short, it seems that consensus on the need to move forward and invest in wellbeing and quality of life was achieved.
During the COVID-19 pandemic and the confinement measures it implied, many services had to be closed; teleworking suddenly became the rule and many families stayed at their homes, with the children in remote classes, some without sufficient equipment or the most adequate digital tools available. Digital services, if implemented correctly, can be the right tools to address many of these challenges. The importance of implementing them correctly increases in the current context of accelerated Digital Transformation, where many are looking towards Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a means to help people to cope with the increasing number of digitized work. We are assisting to a gear-shift in the current digital revolution, as now we better understand how it could have been helpful, if already embedded in daily life.
COVID-19 generated severe consequences for the working context, with effects on physical and mental health and wellbeing, and with trends such as teleworking coming to stay. Organizations and individuals working on AI can play a great role in providing solutions, not only during this emergency period, but also in the long-term perspective, and not only for office workers but in more traditional industries as well. Thus, the COVID-19 pandemic is a driver for the digital revolution in the workplace across many levels. However, inequalities persist and their impact on universal access to the digital world is enormous. Moreover, several other challenges come from the use of artificial intelligence in the workplace.
This paper addresses how technology applied to the work environment can be leveraged to respond to the emerging challenges raised by COVID-19. It also provides reflections on the main opportunities and challenges that the use of AI solutions in the workplace imply, suggesting measures or recommendations to tackle them, towards a concerted approach to AI, integrating the policy agenda with the implementation strategy.
Impact of Digitalization on Work Culture and Employmentijtsrd
Digitalisation is transforming business landscapes and the world of work, and redefining the boundaries of production, consumption and distribution. This has created tremendous opportunities, as new products, processes and techniques have emerged, but it has also created threats as new ways of employment pose new challenges to employers and employees. The overall consequences on labour markets are, however, still highly uncertain, which is reflected in the wide variation in the outcomes of the existing research. The initial government responses appear to be reactive rather than proactive, and targeted towards mitigating the side effects of digitalisation instead of aiming to reap its potential benefits. This study focuses on the impact of digitalisation on work culture and employment. Traditional businesses and industries as well as new forms of work in the on demand economy are assessed. For both, job creation and destruction, interaction with customers and employees, labour relations in terms of both the organization of work, government responses with a specific focus on labour conditions, taxation and social security are discussed.

Skill Development Framework – Reinvention In A Post Covid World
1. Skill Development Framework – Reinvention in
a post COVID World
COVID has taken a huge toll on both human lives and livelihoods on a global
scale. It has forced people to stay indoors and made norms like social distancing
a biting reality. The pandemic has made industries across sectors to shift
towards conducting virtual operations (wherever feasible). The shift has been
found to be more pronounced in certain sectors such as education, retail,
digital marketing, and healthcare, among others. The changed reality of remote
working from home has led to the redefining of functional roles and daily
operations. It means skill development training based on online models in a
post COVID world should be innovative and integral to the emerging realities.
2. Mushrooming of digital platforms in various sectors
The challenge for businesses spread across sectors is to improve the readiness,
scale, and impact of online tools in shifting operations to a seamless and
remotely operating model. A study by FICCI, EY, and NASSCOM states that by
2022, around 9 percent of people will be doing jobs that do not exist today.
Besides, around 37 percent of people will be working in jobs requiring radically
different skill sets. In fact, the precursor of things to come is already visible with
the mushrooming of digital platforms across sectors. In retail, for example,
customers are increasingly using online means to get products or services
delivered to their doorsteps. This example shows how seamlessly logistics and
retail have been integrated to deliver the best user experience.
Challenges created by the pandemic
COVID created a unique situation where governments were forced to declare
lockdowns across cities to stop the spread of the contagion. This resulted in
employees getting stuck in their homes and unable to attend the office physically.
This is where cloud-based digital platforms came in handy as they allowed
employees across sectors to keep the operations running remotely. This change of
working methodology demanded the presence of broadband connections and
smart devices to connect to the internet. Since the penetration of the internet is
not uniform across the country, people falling in the ‘no internet/scanty internet’
zones found it difficult to perform their official duties, remotely. Additionally, since
many jobs have been transformed and taken to the digital space, especially in
sectors such as food delivery, fintech, logistics, and BPOs, among others, a segment
of the workforce has been left rudderless and left to fend for itself.
Reinvent, reskill, upskill, and multiskill
In a post COVID world, businesses are likely to embrace new operating models
including Work from Home. They would go for digital innovations using
technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence and
Machine Learning (AI & ML), 3D printing, and Augmented Reality (AR), among
others.
3. The objectives of embracing such technologies and models by companies would
be to simplify the daily tasks leading to enhanced productivity and efficiency,
reduced waste, and optimization of costs. This would necessitate the reskilling,
upskilling, and multiskilling of employees in various technologies. This can be an
opportunity for organizations to showcase their competitiveness.
Conclusion
In the post-pandemic world, the skill development framework is likely to embrace
new technologies and business models. Organizations should innovate and
leverage technologies to improve productivity, enhance efficiency, and add to their
bottom lines. And to ensure these outcomes, they must be ever-ready to redefine
the operating parameters of their workforce and focus on skill development
training.
