ITAP returns to catalyse sustainable growth for advanced manufacturing
Over 18,000 attendees are expected to join the three-day event physically and online.
Industrial Transformation ASIA-PACIFIC (ITAP), an event of Constellar with international partner Deutsche Messe, returns for its 5th edition this year from 18 – 20 October at Singapore EXPO.
Expected attendees include delegates from the World Economic Forum and key representation from Europe, the
US and Asia driving collaboration between Industry 4.0 leaders and manufacturers in the region.
With the theme "Industry 4.0 for Business Sustainability," ITAP 2022 will dive into three key dimensions: Digitalisation to accelerate productivity and quality control with lower costs; Talent and Workforce Development initiatives to equip personnel with the right skillsets for transformation, and Environmental Sustainability measures to help businesses reduce their carbon footprint and CO2 emissions.
“Advanced manufacturing technologies and innovations have played an essential role in helping many organisations overcome global supply chain disruptions and remodel their businesses in a post-pandemic landscape,” said James Boey, Senior Vice President of Markets (B2B) at Constellar.
“As the leading trade event for Industry 4.0 in the region, ITAP 2022 will continue to empower manufacturing and related industries to leverage on Industry 4.0 for sustainable business development locally, regionally and globally.”
Opening Ceremony
Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat will deliver his opening remarks as the Guest-of-Honour at the ITAP 2022 opening ceremony. He will be launching the event alongside German Ambassador to Singapore, His Excellency Norbert Riedel; and Arno Reich, Senior Vice President of ITAP’s international partner Deutsche Messe.
Vishal Agarwal, Senior Partner at McKinsey & Company, will set the pace for the three-day event with an industry leadership update on the global manufacturing landscape. Keynote speaker Ms Neo Gim Huay, Managing Director of the Centre for Nature and Climate at the World Economic Forum, will address how manufacturers can tap on cross-sectoral collaboration to transform value chains and achieve net zero.
Both Neo and Agarwal will join the fireside chat moderated by Global & Digital Futurist Charlie Ang to discuss emerging trends in the region and key developments that will shape the sector in the next decade.
Immersive Experiences at the Physical Exhibition
More than 200 exhibitors from over 20 countries will present the newest innovations in industrial automation, intralogistics, digital factories and additive manufacturing on the exhibition show floor at Singapore EXPO’s Hall 2 and 3.
Visitors can look forward to more than 15 innovations and product launches on the ITAP 2022 Live Stage at Singapore EXPO Hall 3 alongside presentations on market and sector-focused segments.
The “International Connect Lounge” at Hall 2 will host key business matching sessions to build synergies and forge partnerships between delegates, exhibitors and trade visitors at the event.
ITAP has also doubled the number of its experience zones to four: the Gateway to Sustainable Transformation, the Industrial Transformation Experience Zone, the Digital Twin Experience Centre, and the Additive Manufacturing Experience Showcase.
Connect with Leading Experts across 5 Conferences
Trade visitors can participate in five conferences offering over 120 sessions by more than 150 speakers across the three days.
The first of the five conferences, the Industrial Transformation Forum (ITF), will be held on 18 October.
ITF will feature global industry leaders sharing their insights on upcoming trends to help businesses shape their digital transformation journey towards successful implementation and the development of resilience strategies against future crises.
On 19 October, there will be three conferences: the LogiSYM Platinum series, the Future of Manufacturing CXO Summit (FoM), and the two-day NAMIC Global Additive Manufacturing Summit (GAMS). The Standards Forum will be held on 20 October alongside GAMS.
