Create value from data is easier said than done. Manufacturing Industry has challenges to face such as combining legacy assets with new digital technologies. But these challenges create also opportunities.

We’ll discuss how:

• we apply a 3-D approach based on:
  • bringing new skills (internal, open innovation, ecosystem,…)
  • strategy and governance (including change management)
  • infrastructure (data lakes,…)
• we leverage this strategy to scale-up machine learning and AI and we’ll give concrete examples of enterprise-wide value creation:
  • our Smart Innovative Operations program e.g. predictive maintenance, detecting energy drifts, optimization through a digital twin,…
• what perspectives and other use cases for Air Liquide and the Industry

With the arrival of our new CEO, Sanofi has a newly defined Strategy “Play to Win”, which sets very clear targets on the business side.  For these, there are high expectations on the Digitalization to be an enabler for growth and value creation.

IoT is a key element of the Industrial Affairs Digital Center (IADC), which aims to increase performance in Manufacturing, Quality and Supply Chain. In order to truly deliver value through Digital Products based on IoT, it is vital that the Digital Initiative is not stuck in an Ivory Tower, but creates a deeply integrated network between IT and business, closely linked with the manufacturing sites and laboratories. A similarly deep integration between IoT, systems of differentiation and systems of record needs to be established in order to ensure proper value realization.

Then, maybe surprisingly, technically small innovation drives major transformation and adds significant value, if embedded appropriately into the overall change management and lean activities.

A senior representative from Thames Water will discuss how they are using sensor technology to modernise a 150 year old pipe system, whilst navigating the security concerns of being part of the country’s critical infrastructure over a huge geographic area.

• What is predicted to be the most important innovation in 2020 within the Industry 4.0 environment?
• Real time data analytics in practice – examples of how IoT data is creating business efficiencies and revolutionising working practices
• Industry 4.0 is a continuous process that requires constant optimisation and expansion, with this ever evolving landscape, how can enterprises stay ahead of the curve?
• How much investment is required to successfully implement Industry 5.0?
