People
November 13 | 10:00 AM
Industry X links the operational technology (OT) used in manufacturing with the information technology (IT) systems used to manage the rest of the business. Industry X will require employees working within these systems to expand their job scope, learn new things, and coordinate with new people. Industry X is truly an opportunity to enable and empower the workforce. However, the transition will be as challenging as it is powerful. This webinar will highlight the merging of OT and IT skills in manufacturing. Joining us for this discussion are:
- Dr. Susan Helper, Carlton Professor of Economics, Case Western University
- Dr. Irene Petrick, Senior Director of Industrial Innovation, Intel
- Dr. Elisabeth B. Reynolds, Principal Research Scientist, Executive Director, MIT Work of the Future and IPC, and Lecturer, MIT Dept. of Urban Studies and Planning
Technology and Data
December 4 | 9:30 AM
Data drives Industry X, but Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the co-pilot. Manufacturing operations are creating far more data than is ever used. The underlying technologies that create, process, transmit, and store data have continued to advance at seemingly exponential rates while business processes have remained basically the same. Technologies and processes that capture, transmit, store, and analyze data are being implemented now. Making decisions based on that data is the next frontier. This session will explore how manufacturing companies are using data to make a difference. Joining us for this discussion are:
- Dr. Florian Baumann, CTO – Automotive & AI, Dell Technologies | Download Presentation
- Thomas J. Mott, NA Industry Manager – Automotive, Tire & Aerospace, Rockwell Automation
Process
December 11 | 10:00 AM
Change is hard. Disruptive change is harder. Successful digital transformation requires more than a good strategy and adequate funding. It takes focus on process. Change Agents and Change Managers often drive successful Industry X implementations. This webinar will identify key characteristics for successful Industry X implantation. Joining us for this discussion are:
- Michael Ger, Managing Director, Manufacturing and Automotive, Cloudera
- Brian Irwin, Automotive & Industrial Leader, Accenture | Download Presentation
