Webinar: Digital readiness of machine builders in the UK and Ireland by MA Business

Digital readiness of machine builders in the UK and Ireland

About

What is the digital maturity of the machine building industry?

Is there a sense of urgency and what are the business priorities?

Can machine builders articulate a clear strategy for digitalization?

Is the infrastructure and technology in place, and what role does workplace culture play?

What can customers reasonably expect from their machine builders?

Our benchmark survey assesses the extent to which machine builders are set to address the challenges and seize the opportunities.

The results will illuminate and inform – and no doubt give rise to yet more questions.

Attendees will learn:
1. The extent of digital readiness amongst machine builders
2. The opportunities and challenges – today and tomorrow
3. The role of workforce skills and culture
4. How capable machine builders are of surrounding traditional products with value-added digital services
5. How to take the next steps, regardless of one’s digital maturity
