What are the benefits of adopting an innovative digital solution?
Cost containment, improved businessagility, faster time-to-market, and a more effective customer experience that attracts new customers and retains existing ones.
Would you like to achieve these goals?
These are tangible achievements enabled by technologicalinnovation, a reason for growth for many Italian companies.
To give you the chance to adopt innovative technologies, the Ministry of Economic Development has created an ad-hoc plan: the National Industry 4.0 Plan. The Industry 4.0 Plan gives access to tax breaks and is a great opportunity for all companies that want to seize the opportunities related to the fourth digital revolution.

But what are the technologies that make an enterprise, an enterprise 4.0? Here are the top 4 digital solutions that are changing businesses:
Internet of Things
Smart objects to revolutionize products and services. According to Assintel, a national association of ICT companies, IoT is the technology that will have the greatest relevance among Italian businesses.
IoT merges the physical and virtual worlds. It involves interconnected systems that connect places, people and objects through sensors.
For example, do you want to monitor the productivity of your industrial machinery? By equipping them with smart sensors you can monitor performance at any time, remotely and even with the help of mobile devices.
Big Data & Analytics
Big data from which to derive valuable insights. Investment in Big Data & Analytics solutions is also growing consistently among enterprises (Assintel Report, 2018).
Big Data is the vast amount of data produced by any company with a digital infrastructure. Patterns are extracted from Big Data, information from which to derive value for your business through Analytics software.
For example, do you have industrial machinery on which you have installed IoT sensors? What emerges from the monitoring done by such devices can be decisive in analyzing productivity and figuring out how to save time and money.
Machine Learning
Technology capable of autonomously learning specific tasks According to research IDC, companies that adopt new technologies and machine learning are those most capable of understanding the factors that influence customer satisfaction, product quality and enterprise financial performance.
Machine learning through sophisticated algorithms derives information by analyzing Big Data. The more the algorithm is used, the more intelligent and broad potential it becomes.
For example, would you like to know in advance when a piece of machinery needs maintenance? You can do this through machine learning by operating in advance to avoid breakdowns through predictive maintenance.
Cloud Computing
The container with scalable capacity for your data Cloud computing is the connective tissue on which Industry 4.0 rests.
It is the virtual platform that contains the continuous flow of data produced through IoT and interpreted by Machine Learning. Cloud platforms secure your data and have the great competitive advantage of being "Pay per Use," meaning you pay for the resources you use.
For example, do you want to eliminate wasteful and bulky server rooms? A Cloud platform will meet your need while saving you space and money.
