How can industry 4.0 support the implementation of sustainable manufacturing?

The SMIP – Smart Manufacturing Incentive Program – part of the ADIS strategy, has been developed to incentivise manufacturers not only to increase their digitisation maturity through smart technologies and enhance their digital readiness, but also to boost their sustainable manufacturing approach. The structure of the program aims to support the implementation of technologies for more integrated and sustainable operations in order to cover not only financial sustainability, but also social and environmental aspects.
