Industry 4.0 Blog

The manufacturing industry is at an inflection point. As we approach 2026, technologies such as artificial intelligence, advanced automation, etc. are redefining how we produce, innovate and compete.

COOs drive investment in automation, real-time data and Industry 4.0. But here is the inconvenient truth that consulting firms avoid mentioning: more than half of digitisation projects fail, not because of the technology, but because of a lack of human adoption.

The sustainable textile industry has become a global imperative. Regulatory pressure, consumer demands and sustainability objectives mean that factories must evolve towards more efficient digital models.

Industrial digitisation is advancing rapidly, but so are the threats. Every year, cyber-attacks on companies increase, especially in sectors such as manufacturing, energy, food and logistics, where the convergence between IT and OT systems expands the attack surface.
