Discover the new platform

The Plattform Industrie 4.0 continues to drive digital transformation with Industrial AI.

Empowering Industrial AI Ecosystems

Germany’s industrial sector is undergoing a digital transformation. Industrial AI adds a powerful lever for this transformation—and brings a new dynamic that demands greater agility, increased speed, and mutual empowerment from companies. With Industrial AI, we can collectively ensure competitive strength, autonomy, and resilience.

In doing so, we use the groundwork laid by the Industry 4.0 platform and the innovations of the 8ra and Manufacturing-X initiatives as a foundation for putting Industrial AI into practice. After all, Industrial AI only scales where data is shared securely, autonomously, and interoperably in decentralized cloud-edge infrastructures in accordance with European values.

Together, these innovations strengthen SMEs, hidden champions, and leading industries alike, thereby creating the Industrial AI Ecosystem for industry – Empowering Industrial AI Ecosystems.
