Industry 5.0 represents a new phase of industrialisation that emphasises the importance of social value and human welfare in addition to productivity. This concept involves collaboration between human beings and advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation. Unlike Industry 4.0, Industry 5.0 places the well-being of workers at the centre, promoting prosperity and sustainable growth. In the morning, a panel of talks will see experts and practitioners present how design skills are useful to improve production processes, digitisation and human-machine interaction, also within a broader perspective of environmental sustainability. In the afternoon, after a guided tour of the CIM4.0 Additive Manifacturing pilot line, there will be a programme of B2B meetings by invitation to create opportunities for professional matching between local design studios and companies operating in the region.
