GE and the Global Manufacturing and Industrialization Summit (GMIS) have announced a partnership to explore the role of digitization, lean manufacturing, and workplace safety to support the transformation of manufacturing and economic regeneration both in the United Arab Emirates and globally.
Through joint thought leadership and knowledge sharing activities, GE will collaborate with the Global Manufacturing and Industrialization Summit to support manufacturers in deploying digitization, lean processes and safety protocols to improve efficiencies, eliminate waste, lower costs, increase productivity and uptime, and enhance employee satisfaction.
To be held at EXPO’s Dubai Exhibition Center from November 22-27, the fourth edition of the Summit (#GMIS2021) offers a unique international platform to share lessons and explore opportunities around these three crucial enablers, as leaders from the global manufacturing and technology communities engage in discussion and debate to shape the future of manufacturing and industrialization.
The summit is a joint initiative of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology. With the event coinciding with Dubai Expo, #GMIS2021 will position industrialization at the center of the global dialogue, reinforcing the sector’s important role in driving economic growth and global prosperity. The theme for #GMIS2021 is ‘Rewiring Societies: Repurposing Digitalisation for Prosperity’.
#GMIS2021 will explore the importance of data intelligence and connectivity, and the evolving mechanisms of interaction between humans and machines in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The Summit creates important opportunities to ensure digitization, lean manufacturing and workplace safety are integrated into the future of industrialization.
