With the surge in governments seeking sustainable industrial investment after COP26, ADIPEC’s smart manufacturing exhibition area and conferences will build bridges between local, regional and international manufacturers when the industry is facing a rapidly developing strategy and operating environment.
The area will have a series of the most advanced digital technologies to improve industrial production, including nanotechnology, responsive smart materials, artificial intelligence, computer design and manufacturing, etc.
The conference began on November 16, and will discuss the transition from linear economy to circular economy, the transformation of supply chains, and the development of the next generation of smart manufacturing ecosystems. ADIPEC will welcome His Excellency Sarah Bint Yousif Al Amiri, Minister of State for Advanced Technologies, His Excellency Omar Al Suwaidi, Deputy Minister of State for Advanced Technologies, and senior representatives of the Ministry as guest speakers.
• Astrid Poupart-Lafarge, President of Schneider Electric’s oil, gas and petrochemical division, will share insights into future smart manufacturing centers and how local and international companies can use them to support a diversified and low-carbon economy.
• Fahmi Al Shawwa, founder and CEO of Immensa Technology Labs, will host a panel meeting on transforming the manufacturing supply chain, especially how sustainable materials can play a role in implementing a successful circular economy.
• Karl W. Feilder, CEO of Neutral Fuels, will talk about the integration of industrial parks and petrochemical derivatives with smart ecosystems, and how these smart manufacturing centers provide new opportunities for partnerships and investment.
Deputy Minister of Industry and Advanced TechnologyH Omar Al Suwaidi said that smart manufacturing areas are closely related to the ministry’s efforts to promote digital technology in the UAE’s industrial sector.
“This year, the UAE celebrates its 50th anniversary. We have launched a series of initiatives to pave the way for the country’s growth and development in the next 50 years. The most important of these is UAE Industry 4.0, which aims to strengthen the integration of the tools of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. , And transform the country’s industrial sector into a long-term, sustainable growth engine.
“Smart manufacturing uses technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, data analysis, and 3D printing to improve efficiency, productivity, and product quality, and will become an important part of our global competitiveness in the future. It will also reduce energy consumption and protect important resources. , Play an important role in achieving our net-zero commitment,” he added.
Vidya Ramnath, President of Emerson Automation Solutions Middle East and Africa commented: “In a fast-paced world of industrial development, from wireless technology to IoT solutions, cooperation between policy makers and manufacturing leaders has never been more important. The next step of COP26, this conference will become a venue for building resilience and stimulating decarbonization production-discussing and shaping the contribution of manufacturing to the net zero goal and green investment.”
Astrid Poupart-Lafarge, President of Schneider Electric’s Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Industry Global Division, commented: “With the development of more and more intelligent manufacturing centers, there are huge opportunities to strengthen diversification and empower enterprises to play a greater role in the digital field. Their industry transformation. ADIPEC provides a valuable opportunity to discuss some of the profound changes that the manufacturing and energy industries have undergone in the past few years.”
