Advisory Services Europe | Industrial AI – Status Quo and Growth Areas

As industrial AI accelerates, this Leadership Session examines emerging themes shaping the next wave of transformation. While GenAI dominated recent discussions, Agentic AI, physical AI, and industrial foundation models are rapidly becoming the key focal points.

Designed for technology and business leaders, the session places these developments in the context of the manufacturing sector's evolution, highlighting real customer projects and vendor strategies. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of how these technologies intersect and where the most significant growth opportunities are likely to emerge in the coming years.

Limited clarity on how emerging AI types collectively transform industrial processes and competitiveness.
Difficulty identifying which customer projects and vendor initiatives truly signal meaningful market direction.
Uncertainty about how to craft a pragmatic, scalable, and value-driven industrial AI strategy.
Need for guidance to contextualize diverse industrial AI concepts within a coherent transformation roadmap.
Lack of insight into which AI technologies will drive the strongest industrial growth ahead.
