The Fourth Industrial Revolution describes a world where individuals and businesses shift between the digital realm and offline reality using connected technology to enable, manage and improve their livelihoods.The speed and magnitude of the changes brought about by the 4IR have no historical precedent and cannot be ignored. When compared with previous industrial revolutions, the Fourth is evolving at an exponential rate and no individual, business or government (irrespective of their social, political or economic status) is immune to its disruption. These changes will bring about shifts in knowledge, wealth and ultimately power. Only in being armed with the knowledge of how to leverage the opportunities and mitigate the risks of this technological evolution can we ensure that its benefit can reach all (society, business and governments alike).In today's global world of business, an effective digital strategy is core to the success of your organisation, but how do you execute that strategy in a technological environment that is volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) – where data is the new currency?The reality is that to leverage the opportunities and avoid the pitfalls of this industrial revolution requires specialist knowledge and learned experiences.FIRtech has a unique blend of expertise based on decades of experience in the worlds of IT and OT.
