Building the Future Faster: How Supply Chains Are Being Transformed by Advanced Manufacturing, Digital Twins, AI, and Automation
Modern supply chains are being reshaped by rapid advances in advanced manufacturing, automation, additive manufacturing, AI-enabled engineering, and digitally connected operations. Industries such as aerospace and defense are pushing the boundaries of speed, agility, and resiliency to dramatically compress traditional product development and production timelines.
Organizations are increasingly focused on building secure, resilient, “Made in the USA” supply chains capable of supporting national security, critical infrastructure, and advanced industrial innovation in an increasingly volatile global environment. This session will provide a behind-the-scenes look at how emerging aerospace and advanced manufacturing organizations are leveraging Industry 4.0 and emerging Industry 5.0 technologies to accelerate innovation, strengthen domestic manufacturing capabilities, improve operational responsiveness, and create more agile and resilient supply chain ecosystems.
