Data, Connectivity & Automation: The Role of OT in Industrial IoT, Digital Twins and AI

As industries accelerate their digital transformation, the role of Operational Technology has never been more critical. Once confined to isolated control systems, OT is now deeply intertwined with data-driven ecosystems powered by Industrial IoT, AI, and digital twins.


This panel brings together cross-disciplinary experts to explore how OT is enabling intelligent automation, seamless connectivity, and predictive insights at scale.

What does the convergence of OT and IT really look like in practice? How are data architectures evolving on the factory floor? And what’s needed to truly unlock the potential of AI-powered operations? Join us for a deep dive into the evolving OT landscape—and discover how it's shaping the future of manufacturing.


Key Topics:

  • OT’s strategic role in enabling IIoT and real-time data integration

  • Building and scaling digital twins with accurate and connected OT data

  • Practical applications of AI in industrial automation and predictive maintenance

  • Overcoming challenges in IT/OT convergence, interoperability, and cybersecurity

  • How to future-proof OT infrastructure for flexible, data-driven operations
