Abstract
Manufacturers are speeding Industry 4.0 adoption as they seek to leverage the improved resiliency, productivity, and agility delivered by digital technologies over the last three years. Lower acquisition costs, ease-of-use, clearer return on investment, a young digital-native workforce eager to explore new solutions, agnostic operating software, and managers less adverse to the risk of bringing on new solutions will continue to drive adoption.
