Industrial Intelligence - Industry 4.0 meets AI

Information technologies are dominating the industry. In manufacturing companies, topics such as artificial intelligence, connectivity and platform economies are becoming increasingly important.

Only the use of innovative technologies ensures the competitiveness of companies. At the Hannover Messe, visitors can find out how factories and plants are becoming even more intelligent.

Hannover Messe opens its doors from April 1 to 5, 2019. Exhibitors present themselves at the world's leading trade fair for industry. The leading theme is Integrated Industry - Industrial Intelligence and underlines the increasing importance of machine learning.

In future, humans will use artificial intelligence to enable machines and factories to control themselves. This involves process optimization as well as energy efficiency, protocols and safety.

"In today's industry, digitalization is a top priority because it enables the networking of suppliers, producers, customers and partners"

says Arno Reich, Business Unit Director of Hannover Messe.

"This is why new software and IT developments are crucial for industrial companies."

In addition to artificial intelligence and platform economies, the focus will be on topics such as hybrid clouds, augmented and virtual reality, 5G, blockchain and digital twins.
