Invitation to the Hannover Fair
Digital twin, data rooms and sustainability
– Plattform Industrie 4.0 with booth & events at HM 2021
Introduction
The Plattform Industrie 4.0 and its partners will present their latest results and next steps on the way to digital ecosystems at the Hannover Fair: Based on the Digital Twin and GAIA-X, the Plattform is devel-oping Industrie 4.0 data spaces and approaches for sustainable, CO2-neutral production with partners. We cordially invite you to our events and our virtual booth at Hannover Fair 2021 - free ticket included.
In the Leaders' Dialogue, high-ranking national and international representatives from politics, business and trade unions will discuss progress towards digital, resilient ecosystems. In particular, the focus is on the digital twin, I4.0 data spaces and sustainability. Speakers on the panel include Federal Minister for Econom-ic Affairs and Energy Peter Altmaier, Federal Minister of Education and Research Anja Karliczek, GAIA-X CEO Francesco Bongfolio and Dr Frank Possel-Dölken, CDO at Phoenix Contact and chairman of the Platt-form Industrie 4.0 steering group.
Virtual booth of PI4.0, LNI 4.0 and SCI 4.0
Ten years after the birth of “Industrie 4.0”, the Plattform and its partners have laid important foundations for its implementation: It has matured the Asset Administration Shell and, with the founding of the Industrial Digital Twin Association, brought it close to the market. It initiated GAIA-X and continues to provide impuls-es from the leading user domain. With numerous implementation projects, it accompanies the path of its concepts into industrial practice. The “Charter for Learning and Working” in Industrie 4.0 and the “three de-velopment paths” also focus on sustainability.
At the joint booth with the Standardisation Council Industrie 4.0 (SCI 4.0) and the Labs Network Industrie 4.0 (LNI 4.0), these results are now available. Numerous implementation projects and new publications will be presented in German and English throughout the entire week of the fair. Seven live streams with the ex-perts of the Plattform Industrie 4.0 and video chats with the booth staff provide the opportunity for direct exchange.

Further programme tips from the Plattform Industrie 4.0
Sustainable production in Industrie 4.0 - the digital circular economy as an update
Plattform Industrie 4.0 shows development paths for sustainable production and presents compa-nies that are already producing in the sense of the circular economy. A discussion round with lead-ing sustainability experts from companies and associations will shed light on the potentials and challenges for industrial companies on the way to a digital circular economy.
Legal-testbed — for the (legally) secure implementation of Industrie 4.0
In Industrie 4.0, machines are supposed to communicate with other machines and make decisions independently. This poses legal and security challenges. In the pilot project "Industrie 4.0 Legal Testbed", experts from various disciplines are working on I4.0-compliant solutions and will present their (interim) results for the first time at HM 2021.
Plattform Industrie 4.0 and its international partners will jointly reflect on the challenges and efforts in the digitalisation of industry. Representatives from Australia, China, India, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, the USA, the EU and GAIA-X AISBL will be present.
GAIA-X – for manufacturing - The potential of a sovereign data infrastructure
Plattform Industrie 4.0 and GAIA-X AISBL present use cases that demonstrate the added value of an open and transparent data infrastructure for the manufacturing companies. The event will also provide insights into the technical roadmap leading to the implementation of the GAIA-X data eco-system.
