Bottom line, people can't ditch oil. Is going green doomed?

Industry can not fully abandon crude oil. The number of derivative products made from petroleum are too vast and vital to survival. The food industry relies on fossil-derived fertilizers. Meanwhile, products from textiles to medications rely on ingredients and feedstocks isolated from oil. So, is the concept of industry “going green” even possible? This is the central focus of the latest episode of the Industry Forward Podcast. It features host John Nixon, Global Vice President of Process Industries at Siemens Digital Industry Software and his guest Thiago Ribeiro, Global Head of Energy, Chemicals and Infrastructure at Siemens Digital Industry Software. Their solutions will define the future of industrial environmentalism. In this podcast you will learn: * 01:10 – Why oil and gas is still needed in a green future * 04:47 – How going green is still possible for industries that need oil and gas * 09:24 – Why industrial environmentalism has oil and gas companies rebranding * 14:12 – What PLM and comprehensive digital twins can teach environmental causes Connect with John Nixon on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnnixon/] Connect with Thiago Ribeiro on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/thiago-felippe-ribeiro/]

How to fully leverage digitalization in automotive today

For software-defined vehicles in the streets to AI in manufacturing, the automotive industry is set to undergo significant transformation in the next few years. Yet there are plenty of opportunities for automotive companies to get an early start on that transformation now. The data to drive change already exists across the product lifecycle, but only with digitalization can companies collect and leverage it in an impactful way. In this episode of The Industry Forward Podcast, Royston Jones, Global Head of Automotive and Transportation for Siemens Digital Industries Software, is joined by Ryan Martin, Senior Research Director at ABI Research. Together, they discuss the accessibility of data for automotive companies today and how they can use digital tools such as the comprehensive Digital Twin can increase availability and use it to redefine automotive processes. In this episode, you will learn: * How many companies can access data and use it for prescriptive analytics * How the comprehensive Digital Twin uses data for deeper analyses * The importance of context and connecting across the product lifecycle Connect with Royston: * LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/royston-jones-58379b12/?skipRedirect=true] Connect with Ryan: * LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryangrangermartin/] Connect with Kate: * LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-eby-7819825/]

Energy sectors' digitalization is a must in an AI world

For decades the energy industry has been plagued by volatility due to the ever-fluctuating price of oil. The result, the Oil and Gas sector clings to stability—even if that consistency means operating 50-year-old analog equipment. But as newer, greener players enter the market, these decades old technologies are no longer competitive. The energy industry is entering an inflection point of digitalization, data centers and artificial intelligence. For Oil and Gas to keep up, it must first implement new data strategies focused on digital maturity. In this podcast you will learn: * 01:46 – How the volatility of the Oil and Gas sector affects modernization * 05:45 – Why the Energy sector’s digitalization lags other industries * 09:41 – How a good data strategy unlocks the future of the Oil and Gas industry Connect with John Nixon on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnnixon/] Connect with Thiago Ribeiro on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/thiago-felippe-ribeiro/]
