Panel discussions

Two moderated
debates.

These debates will bring together the experience of leaders in Czech industry and offer different perspectives on current challenges and the future of manufacturing. Experienced hosts with many years of practice, who have conducted hundreds of interviews with top managers and leading figures of Czech industry, will ensure an open, focused and inspiring debate full of insights from practice.

Industrial transformation

The transformation of industry is no longer a question of the future, but of everyday decision-making. Artificial intelligence, automation, the digitalisation of production and data-driven processes are changing the way companies manufacture, plan and collaborate. Where does technology deliver the greatest added value today? What experience do companies have with implementing it, and what determines the success of an industrial company's transformation?

The future of industry

The future of industry will not be determined by a single technology or one direction of investment. Long-term competitiveness will be decided by strategic choices in energy, manufacturing, logistics, infrastructure and the development of people. How are the priorities of industrial companies changing? Where do new competitive advantages arise, and what challenges will companies face in the coming years? Which strategies should be chosen so that Czech industry succeeds in a rapidly changing global environment?
