Together with members and partners, the trade association celebrated its 25th anniversary in Würzburg. One thing became particularly clear: the trade association and its topics are playing an increasingly important role in the industry.
The Industrial Metaverse - what added value does it offer? Which use cases are already possible and which hurdles still need to be overcome? A conversation with Michael Schmitt (Capgemini) and Florian Klein (VDMA).
Data is the blood of the complex organism of product development. The results report "Digital Product Development" by the WZL of RWTH Aachen University and the VDMA compactly shows how the many pieces of information can be effectively linked.
Taking the metaverse into account is the right thing to do. However, strict EU rules would be an innovation killer. For mechanical engineering, the Industrial Metaverse offers great potential on the way to climate-neutral production and digitization.
VDMA found out why it will influence the world of work and how we will work together in the industrial environment in the future in an interview with two of our member companies.
Our publications deal with various aspects of digitalization in mechanical engineering companies as well as cybersecurity and information security and serve as recommendations for action.
For some time now, the metaverse has been a much-discussed trend topic. It is a digital space in which virtual, augmented and physical reality merge as seamlessly as possible. Thus, digital representations of people ("avatars") can interact with each other and with digital objects in a virtual environment. But what impact does this have on industrial companies?
In order to remain technologically and economically successful in the future, the Executive Board of the trade association has launched three strategic working groups on central and future-relevant topics.
The EU Parliament has adopted its position on the new circular economy package. From the VDMA's point of view, this is a good step into the right direction, but too much bureaucracy has to be avoided.
