GO BEYOND.
Because the future won´t wait.
What does it really mean to be future-ready today?
In his presentation, Jürgen Ries, CEO of the ASYS Group, provides insight into the strategic vision behind GO BEYOND and explains why future-readiness today goes far beyond traditional automation. The focus is on intelligent production systems that seamlessly integrate hardware, software, and process expertise. Using the GenS platform and AI-powered autonomous functions as examples, he explains how machines are increasingly optimizing processes on their own and helping companies produce more flexibly, efficiently, and resiliently. The key question is how manufacturing systems must be designed to continue meeting the demands of markets and production processes in the future.
