The Fourth Industrial Revolution: How ready are you?

The extraordinary technological advances taking place in sectors as diverse as robotics, sensors, data analytics, IoT, 5G, automation and artificial intelligence (AI) together constitute a new industrial revolution, one that is at least on a scale with its predecessors. But how and when will enterprises adopt these new technologies and capabilities? What examples do we have so far of how these different technologies – often used in combination – are being used? In short, how ready are enterprises for IR 4.0? This joint report from Fitch Solutions – a provider of country risk and industry research solutions and part of Fitch Group – and TM Forum, takes an enterprise-centric view of IR4.0. In addition to assessing three of the key technology components of IR4.0 – IoT, Blockchain and AI – it explores the supply chain for their delivery and adoption. It also includes a dedicated survey of attitudes to IR4.0 from leading manufacturers (TWI). Report written by: Mark Newman, Chief Analyst TM Forum, Nicholas Jotischky, Head of Custom Research Fitch Solutions and Paul Ridgewell, Independent Analyst.
