Bring the 4th Industrial Revolution to Our Company (Lahore)

July 23 – 25, 2018

Venue: PIM, Lahore.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Humankind stands on the brink of a technological revolution that will fundamentally alter the way they live, work, and relate to one another. In its scale, scope, and complexity, this transformation will be unlike anything humankind has experienced before. We do not yet know just how it will unfold, but the response to it must be integrated and comprehensive, involving all stakeholders of the global polity, from the public and private sectors to academia and civil society.

Pakistan has not even experienced the 3rd industrial revolution in its true sense. It is therefore necessary that we leapfrog into the 4th Industrial Revolution, bypassing the mistakes and the costs of the 3rd.

In this workshop we discuss the aspects of the 4th Industrial Revolution and what are its elements. We then prepare roadmaps to move our companies from the present to the 4th Industrial Revolution.

This course is helpful for all industries – manufacturing, banking, service industry, utilities.

Such a course if being offered in Pakistan for the first time.
