Underdeveloped infrastructure limits access to health care and education. Industry is constantly changing; in the early 17th century, the industrial revolution came with mechanization and steam engines Almost 100 years later, we went through the age of scale production, electricity, and combustion, until we reached automation, the internet, robotics, and computers in the 20th century.
GOAL:
Promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and, by 2030, significantly increase industry's share of employment and GDP according to national circumstances and double its share in the least developed countries;
Increase access for small industries and other enterprises, particularly in developing countries, to financial services, including affordable credit and their integration into value chains and markets.
