What does “industry 4.0” mean, how does biotechnology fit in with that, and what does AI have to do with anything?

Our short animation film explains how different waves of innovation, discovery and industrialisation have changed the ways in which our lives are shaped and organised – and biotechnology’s potential to offer substantial and sustainable solutions to current global issues.

Biotechnology, which has accompanied us for much longer than most might guess, has the potential to offer substantial and more sustainable solutions for our ressource-heavy everyday modern lives. It is a challenge, since biotechnology works with unpredictable live matter. But leveraging advanced digital solutions – including next generation strain searches, AI powered digital twins, and new sensors – will help us to create and optimise innovative and reliable bioprocesses. And Bioindustry 4.0 is developing these services for European research infrastructures: to offer to researchers from industry and academia alike.

Join us as we delve into BioIndustry 4.0, a groundbreaking European initiative aimed at revolutionizing biomanufacturing processes through smart technology.

This video provides an in-depth look at how the principles that transformed traditional engineering are now making waves in biological laboratories. Discover the concept of the Digital Twin and see how it is implemented in real-world scenarios, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of biomanufacturing. We take you inside the Siemens facility to show firsthand the advancements and applications of these technologies.

Whether you’re a professional in the industry or a curious observer, this video will provide valuable insights into the future of biomanufacturing and its impact on science and healthcare.
