Anticipating how pioneering technologies, innovative business models and new partnerships are transforming business’s ability to drive economic and societal impact.

Production is more than manufacturing – it encompasses everything from research and development to design, consumer behaviour and end-of-use cycles. It includes multiple industries as diverse as automotive, chemicals, electronics, healthcare and textiles. While manufacturing has been the foremost source of growth, jobs and innovation globally, production also contributes heavily to CO2 emissions and climate change. Emerging technologies are transforming the world of production, enabling more efficient processes and creating new value for industry, society and the environment.
