Industry 4.0 is the name for the digital transformation in the manufacturing industry. Internet of Things is part of that revolution. My responsibily as the Business Development Manager for Industrial IoT Solutions at Symetri is to define strategy and offering definition for our Industrial IoT solutions and services. Additionally, my role includes support of PLM related sales and delivery projects in Northern Europe. In my professional career, I have been working more than 25 years with engineering tools (CAD/PDM) and supported companies in their process development needs. The last 10+ years I've mainly been involved with PLM (Product Lifecycle Management). If you want to share your experiences or interest of the Industrial IoT or PLM, feel free to contact me.
