Digital Convergence

7 April 2024

Industrie 4.0, the Internet of things, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, Real-time Data Analytics, and others convey a world of rapid digital convergence that magically removes the complexity of data integration and compliance and accelerates innovation and new ways of doing business.

This webinar starts and concludes with the IDX theme from African Automation Technology Fair (AATF) 2019 “Establish, Maintain and Leverage Data Connectivity for Business Benefit” while briefly investigating Digital Convergence: the blurring of boundaries between manufacturing, mining, retail, banking and residential for cost reduction and efficiencies of scale.

Topics discussed in this webinar:

  • Set the scene
  • Convergence enablers
  • Convergence pot-holes
  • Wrap up
