Industry 5.0: Shaping the Future

Welcome to the track titled “Industry 5.0: Shaping the Future”. Through this track you will be introduced to Industry 5.0, which emphasizes human-centricity, resilience, and sustainability. Unlike Industry 4.0, which prioritised automation and efficiency, Industry 5.0 aims to enhance societal value and well-being by integrating advanced technologies with human collaboration. In this track you will understand the need for organisations to shift from profit-centric to people-centric approaches, the potential economic impacts such as job creation and sustainable business models. It also touches on the impact of not adopting Industry 5.0, which could lead to reduced competitiveness and operational inefficiencies, and missed opportunities for innovation and sustainability.
