Smart Industries
The Smart Industries platform covers companies that stand out in their sectors with innovative engineering and intelligent technologies.
Our economic society is evolving at lightning speed. Virtually all such companies, in very divergent industries, are confronted with this continuous change and an increasingly global business environment. Almost by definition, these companies are heavy exporters of their products and services. Technological innovation is often a driving factor for achieving this scalability, for taking products and services to a higher level, making processes more efficient and improving the go-to-market. Rapidly accelerating digitisation also creates opportunities for efficiency gains and process improvements. And finally, technology can provide an even better customer experience and a distinctive position against international
competition.
The Smart Industries team works together with companies responding to these trends, to turn them into international leaders in their sectors.
