In hyper-industrial era, the development of industry did not stagnate, but appeared in the form of close integration of manufacturing, service, and digital industries. Industry can only survive when it can participate in digital transformation and integrate into a new economy that focuses on use and service, and is geared towards sustainable development.”

With the development of technology and the gradual shortage of working manpower, more and more AI intelligent robots have been developed and officially applied in the workplace. How should human beings think and respond to such a wave of technology? Will jobs really be completely replaced?

With such high uncertainty and high volatility in the market environment, how can the plastics industry improve its physique? Can we respond flexibly to the ever-changing world economy?

The main goal of RCEP is to integrate the existing ASEAN+1FTA and add new regulatory rules, such as e-commerce, telecommunications services, etc., to establish unified trade rules for Asia-Pacific countries.

The U.S. machine tool industry is the industry that has been hit the most by this wave of epidemics, including smart machinery and Industry 4.0, which are still the unchanged development trends for machine tool manufacturers in the future.

Due to the outbreak of COVID-19 and its rapid global spread, the global auto parts, semiconductor, and electronics industries have been exposed to highly uncertain risks. Global supply chain logistics is an issue that everyone has had to reexamine.

In recent years, Sustainable Development Goals (SDRs), Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) are terms that have become more and more frequently heard among international companies and listed OTC companies.

In recent years, extreme climate has intensified and natural disasters have continued to be tragic. People all over the world have seen it, and related carbon reduction issues have resurfaced. Net Zero, Carbon Neutral, and Carbon Negative have become popular keywords, but what do you really understand about these?

Germany is the second-largest producer of machine tools in the world, after China. Advanced German machine tool technology has led the development of the machine tool market.

Smart manufacturing utilizes advanced manufacturing technology and provides solutions through AI, the Internet of Things, big data, cloud, edge computing, and other technologies to substitute the production process with an intelligent manufacturing model and customize products according to customer needs.

Digital transformation is the process of applying digital technology to recreate the way work is done to create and provide new value.

Industrial Internet of Things (Indusrial IoT, or IIoT) is the expansion and use of the Internet of Things (IoT) in industrial applications. Industrial IoT focuses on machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, big data, and machine learning (ML) to make industrial operations more efficient and reliable. IIoT covers the entire industrial application, including robotics, medical equipment, and software-defined production processes.
