🚨 New Episode Out Today. #Industry #Talks by ARC Advisory Group Europe Are Open Digital Ecosystems the Key to Scalable Digital Transformation? Digital twins promise huge value for industry - but many initiatives still struggle to scale. Why? Because data silos, fragmented architectures, and limited interoperability continue to hold companies back. In our latest episode, ARC Advisory Group’s Luciano Narcisi and Alexey Grechko explore what needs to change 👇 🎙️ Topics include: • Why the conversation is shifting from Open Digital Twin to Open Digital Ecosystem • How open standards and shared data models improve scalability • The role of DEXPI e.V. and interoperable engineering data • How openness could better connect digital twins, AI, and industrial applications • Why keeping humans in the loop remains critical 👉 The big takeaway: The question is no longer if digital twins matter - but whether industry can unlock their full value without a more open and interoperable ecosystem. If you’re working with #DigitalTwin, #IndustrialData, or #DigitalTransformation initiatives - this episode is for you. 🎧 Tune in now and join the conversation. 👇 Links in the comments below. #OpenDigitalEcosystem #Interoperability #OpenStandards #Industry40 #SmartManufacturing #ARCAdvisoryGroup #ARC #Podcast

Resilient operations aren’t built in isolation - they emerge where technology, collaboration, and real-world experience meet. At #ARCForum 2026 in Sitges, industry leaders will go beyond theory and dive into what actually works: from AI-driven manufacturing and digital twins to cybersecurity and sustainable transformation. What stands out this year? It’s not just the agenda - it’s the people shaping it. Global players like Siemens and COPA-DATA, alongside an incredible ecosystem of #innovators and #associations, are actively driving the dialogue and sharing hands-on insights. This is where strategies become actionable. Where ideas are challenged. And where the future of industrial operations takes form. If you’re serious about digital transformation, this is the place to be. 📅 May 4–6, Sitges (Barcelona) Let’s connect, learn, and build what’s next. #ARCForum #IndustrialAI #DigitalTransformation #SmartManufacturing #Sustainability #Industry40 #Innovation #Leadership

Industrial #DigitalAsset is no longer a vision - it’s a value question. From Data to Value: Digital Asset at European #ARCForum 2026 Industrial #DigitalAsset is moving from potential to performance - and the real question is how to scale impact across operations. At the European #ARCForum 2026 in Sitges (Barcelona), Digital Asset takes center stage through two key focus areas: 🔍 Data-Driven Automation and Digital Services - Enabling Efficient and Resilient Operations 🔍 Digital Twins: Perspectives and Outlook From advanced analytics and KPI dashboards to #DigitalTwin adoption at scale, the discussion is shifting from experimentation to execution - turning raw plant data into meaningful, operational value. Key challenges remain: data integration, scalability and embedding insights into daily decision-making. But the direction is clear - more connected, predictive and resilient operations. By bringing together owner-operators, technology providers and industry experts, the forum from ARC Advisory Group Europe enables practical exchange on what it really takes to scale Digital Asset initiatives and translate them into measurable business value. 📅 May 4–6, 2026 📍 Sitges (Barcelona) #DigitalAsset #DigitalTransformation #IndustrialAI #SmartManufacturing #Innovation #Sustainability #ARCForum2026

Industrial #AI is moving beyond pilots - and the question is no longer if, but how to scale. Across process and discrete industries, companies are accelerating AI adoption, yet many still face familiar barriers: fragmented data, isolated use cases, and limited IT/OT integration. The result? Untapped potential for truly autonomous and resilient operations. At the European #ARCForum 2026 in Sitges (Barcelona), these challenges take center stage. 🔍 Key focus areas include: ▪️ Industrial-grade AI architectures enabling autonomous operations ▪️ Open Digital Ecosystems applied to process safety and HAZOP From agentic #AI and #DataFabrics to #DigitalTwins and edge-native intelligence, the conversation is shifting toward scalable, real-world implementation. The goal: turning innovation into measurable impact - from predictive maintenance to energy efficiency. 💡 A highlight: an interactive HAZOP workshop exploring how AI and ecosystem collaboration can enhance both the efficiency and quality of hazard analysis. This ARC Advisory Group Europe Forum brings together industry leaders, technology providers and experts to move beyond experimentation - toward integrated, scalable solutions that deliver sustainable value. 📅 May 4–6, 2026 📍 Sitges (Barcelona) #IndustrialAI #DigitalTransformation #SmartManufacturing #Innovation #Sustainability #ARCForum2026

🚨 New Episode Out Today. #Industry #Talks by ARC Advisory Group Europe What Is Holding Back Digital Twin Adoption in Industrial Operations? Digital twins were supposed to transform industrial operations - but for many companies, progress stalled after the initial excitement. In our latest episode, ARC Advisory Group's Luciano Narcisi and Alexey Grechko dig into the why👇 🎙️ They unpack the real-world challenges organizations face: • High implementation effort and complexity • The ongoing burden of maintaining digital twins over time • Fragmented data and lack of interoperability But it’s not all roadblocks… 💡 The conversation also explores what is changing the game: • Reality capture enabling faster modeling - especially in brownfield plants • AI-driven equipment recognition to accelerate deployment • Knowledge graphs for making sense of complex industrial systems • The growing importance of open, scalable architectures 🏭 From the plant floor: Featuring insights from Michel Teughels, ExxonMobil: • Digital twin value comes from integrating data and systems end-to-end to cut inefficiencies • Start small with high-impact use cases to generate value early and fund expansion • Long-term success depends on integration - not standalone systems - to keep maintenance sustainable 👉 The big takeaway: The question is no longer if digital twins matter – but how to build them in a way that actually scales and lasts. If you’re working with #IndustrialData, #DigitalTransformation, or #Industry40 initiatives - this episode is for you. 🎧 Tune in now and join the conversation. 👇Links in the comments below. #DigitalTwin #IndustrialAI #RealityCapture #KnowledgeGraph #OpenStandards #ProcessIndustry #BrownfieldPlants #IndustrialData #SmartManufacturing #Industry40

Machine builders at a Crossroads: ARC Advisory Group's Paolo Scarabelli shifts gears at European #ARCForum Why do advanced machines still struggle to deliver lasting competitive advantage, even as software, AI and connectivity continue to evolve? Because the rules are changing. Hardware alone is no longer enough. Value is shifting toward software, data and lifecycle services - while new regulations add complexity that can’t be addressed after the fact. At the European #ARCForum in Sitges (May 4–6), this challenge takes center stage. A dedicated machine builder track will explore how OEMs are navigating software-defined architectures, AI, cybersecurity and evolving EU regulations - while rethinking their business models for long-term resilience. If you’re re-evaluating how to design, deliver and monetize machines in this new environment, this is a conversation worth joining. #MachineBuilders #SoftwareDefinedAutomation #AI #DigitalTwin #Cybersecurity #ARCForum
