IITD Industry Day 2018 and "Smart Manufacturing" Thematic Sessions

Smart Manufacturing

The “Digital” storm and the manufacturing world is agog with the rapid changes that are transforming the international manufacturing scenario. Technology is forcing huge disruptions in the classical models of global commerce. India being one of the biggest markets in the world with an equally strong bedrock of potential in manufacturing, cannot stay aloof from these winds of change which are forcing readjustment of the sails elsewhere.

Samarth Udyog is an initiative by the Government of India that bridges the awareness and actual technology gap to enable Indian companies to participate and play an important role on the global stage of manufacturing. To strengthen the ‘Make in India’  eco-system with adoption of smart technologies, Industry and IIT Delhi have created a Special Purpose Vehicle, called the Foundation for Smart Manufacturing (FSM) to take the emerging wave of Smart Technologies and adapt it with relevance to the needs of grass root manufacturing in MSME and talent incubators in Educational and Vocational Institutes.
