Discussing broken supply chains in an automated world Automa.Net

WE WILL SHAKE HANDS AGAIN AND DISCUSS BROKEN SUPPLY CHAINS IN INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION WORLD

The industrial automation sector is one of the fastest-growing markets in the world. Between 2020 and 2025, the average annual growth will stand at a 7.3% CAGR. In 2025, the market will be worth $114.17 billion (report “Process Automation Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecast (2020 - 2025)” by Mordor Intelligence).

Such a dynamically growing and changing market was particularly impacted by the pandemic and the chaos it caused.

Companies who were in the centre of this rapidly changing environment were trade companies like distributors, brokers, and dealers of components. 2021 was especially challenging for these companies, as there was much to do to repair broken supply chains. The need for dialogue in the dynamically developing industrial automation market.

Component trade companies will play a key role in ensuring the continuity of production lines. The cooperation of these companies is an indispensable element of the upcoming changes, which will enable the efficient implementation of new processes and the development of best practices.

The world has changed over the last few years. People have gotten used to spending hours on video calls during the workday. However with the vaccination efforts going well, there are some events you don’t want to miss if you pay attention to the industrial automation market.

One of them will take place soon on May 20-21, Warsaw, Poland.
