Siemens pushes forward digitalisation in Malaysia
“Digitalisation is no longer a buzzword or a future possibility, but a reality that is now embedded in every aspect of our lives. While the changes might lead to a higher demand of highly-skilled workers, it also holds boundless opportunities in newly-emerging jobs.”
Those are the words of Datuk Seri Chua Tee Yong, Deputy Minister of International Trade and Industry, during his keynote address at the ‘Shaping Digitalisation – Malaysia and Siemens: Our Journey Together event. It aims to propel Siemens Malaysia to become a key enabler for the country’s transition into digitalisation, as part of the Transformasi Nasional 50 (TN50) initiatives.
“We are in the middle of a revolution that we have come to witness, which is the Fourth Industrial Revolution or better known as Industry 4.0. This concept has already been embraced by developed countries while some are already moving towards it and now, Malaysia too is heading in the same direction,” Chua continues.
To demonstrate Siemens’ ambition of becoming the global leader in industrial technology and a powerhouse in digitalisation, the event was filled with panel discussions, track sessions and a marketplace of exhibitors that includes a virtual reality showcase.
