  • Münchner Kreis
    MÜNCHNER KREIS SAVE THE DATE The Digital Transformation of Manufacturing Industries: Revolution or Evolution? November 22–24, 2016 at the Munich Residenz and the International Congress Center in Munich, Germany In recent years, the “Platform Industrie 4.0” has gained recognition beyond the borders of Germany. Similar initiatives can be found in other countries; they may have different names and different foci but the conception and goals are comparable. In the USA, for example, the Industrial Internet Consortium was established under the leadership of key companies such as General Electric, IBM, and Cisco to advance the digitalization in manufacturing industries from a data-driven perspective. In China, the digitalization of industry is being discussed under the label “Made in China 2025.” Similar initiatives can also be found in Japan (Industrial Value Chain Initiative) and in France (L'usine Digitale). acatech and the MÜNCHNER KREIS will hold a two-day conference in Munich in November 2016 with the goal of bringing together the perspectives and concepts of selected industrial countries. The conference will give participants the opportunity to intensively discuss current developments in the digitalization of manufacturing industries and ideas for how different countries can better work together in this area. Besides comparing technological initiatives, special focus will be placed on revolutionary business plans. In addition, there will be a chance to identify the similarities and future challenges in areas such as security and interfaces. We will begin with a pre-conference event on the evening of November 22nd at the Residenz in central Munich with a presentation by Prof. Henning Kagermann of the results of an international study carried out by acatech in 2015 and 2016.
