SINGAPORE, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Industrial Transformation ASIA-PACIFIC (ITAP), an event of Constellar with international partner Deutsche Messe, and Asia's leading trade event on empowering manufacturing and related industries with Industry 4.0, returns in 2022 for its fifth edition. With the theme 'Industry 4.0 for Business Sustainability', this year's ITAP deep-dives into trends and developments across three key dimensions influencing the magnitude of sustainable business development for advanced manufacturing and its related sectors locally, regionally and globally.

The three dimensions – Digitalisation, Talent & Workforce Development and Environmental Sustainability – are key for companies to further reinforce and strengthen capabilities in staying prepared for disruptions in global supply chains. These three key areas explore the adoption of I4.0 to achieve the following outcomes respectively:

• Digitalisation: Seamless process flow, greater productivity with lower transaction costs and operational excellence, through integration of systems, data and people with innovative I4.0 tools, data analytics and technologies
• Talent & Workforce Development: A better prepared workforce with the right skillsets and talent for business transformation, through adoption of the human-robot collaborative system approach
• Environmental Sustainability: Reduction of carbon footprint and CO2 emissions, allowing companies to maintain green sustainability throughout the value chain by implementing appropriate mitigation measures from I4.0 migration

After its successful return last year with a physical exhibition format, ITAP 2022 expects to welcome close to 200 exhibitors and 18,000 trade attendees from the region over three event days, with a line-up of showcases and activities to enrich and accelerate their business transformation journeys.
