China's State Council has unveiled China Manufacturing 2025, a ten years national plan aiming to transform China into a leading manufacturing power by 2049. The strategy covers the whole manufacturing sectors by applying advanced initiatives from developed industrial countries, such as Germany.
According to Industry 4.0, we are on the brink of a new revolution in manufacturing. The long-term impact of Industry 4.0 would have profound implications in history just like when the manufacturing sector transformed the world’s economy during the industrial revolutions started in the eighteen century. Companies such as Siemens are not only the leaders in Industry 4.0, but also invited by the Chinese local government to adviser on the local action plan of China Manufacturing 2025.
What are the similarities and differences between China Manufacturing 2025 and Industry 4.0? How are they going to affect the industrial and business operation? What strategies should you take to deal with such change?
The European Chamber, Nanjing Chapter, is organizing a seminar centred on the two strategies. Experts from the industrial leaders and top consultancies would share their insights and give comprehensive presentations on the above questions. Hurry up and please BLOCK THE DATE.
