Industry 4.0 Paradigm
We are currently experiencing what everyone calls the 4th industrial revolution in which we are faced with a number of digital technologies that enable the industry 4.0 paradigm. Therefore a vision according to which, thanks to these enablers, companies will increase competitiveness and efficiency through the interconnection of their resources (plants, people, information) both inside the factory and distributed along the value chain. Along this path, strategic planning such as the design of an appropriate roadmap that guides change is fundamental.
