Multi-complex challenges & all-encompassing digitalization - What will manufacturing look like in the future?
The manufacturing industry is facing the greatest upheaval and change since the advent of mass production. The status quo will no longer suffice. While resilience has remained a key theme, innovations such as IIoT, advanced analytics and automation, and trends such as predictive maintenance, digital twins and intelligent automation are creating the megatrend of smart manufacturing.
Rethink! Smart Manufacturing is a 2-day, leadership focused conference designed to address these challenges and to bring global manufacturing, operations, engineering, quality and supply chain leaders together to discuss current trends, strategic insights and best practices in an ever-evolving manufacturing environment. Rethink! Smart Manufacturing serves as an annual platform to exchange ideas surrounding the impact of market dynamics and new technologies for current and future manufacturing leaders. Network with over 150 of your peers, connect with exhibitors and learn from the top industry influencers as we explore strategies to optimize, modernize, train and innovate across multiple manufacturing facilities. Discuss opportunities, optimize your resilience and strengthen your future. Because one thing is certain: change always means both challenge and opportunity.

“Improvement usually means doing something that we have never done before.”
