Did you know that the world economy and humanity is at the verge of one of the most transformational periods in history of mankind?

Have you heard about the 'Industrial Revolutions'; which from time to time transformed the course of humanity? The first industrial revolution was powered by mechanization, water power and steam power. The second industrial revolution was powered by the mass production of products such as the famous Henry Ford's Model-T car, assembly lines and electricity. The third industrial revolution was powered by computerization and automation.

Now, the fourth industrial revolution, known as 'Industry 4.0 (4IR)' will be powered by Cyber Physical Systems, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robotics is set to unleash the next wave of disruption at an unprecedented scale and force!

With demanding and unprecedented challenges such as rising human population and climate change, the Agriculture Industry is on its way for a massive transformation with Industry 4.0 to offer food security for the global human population in a sustainable manner. With cutting-edge technologies like Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), how is Industry 4.0 going to change and disrupt the game?
