Manufacturing companies are undergoing a transformation: the digitalisation of production promises efficiency and innovation, but also harbours risks. The networking of machines, IT systems and cloud services opens up unimagined potential, but what about IT security?

As we have all seen, digitalisation has made inroads across all sectors in recent years, including in the waste management industry. The rollout of digital technologies and solutions represents a great opportunity to make more efficient use of resources, improve process transparency and achieve greater sustainability in waste management. Despite this, companies and public authorities face a number of challenges. I will explain what these are and how companies can overcome them in my blog post.

Modern media companies are well aware that the ‘last mile’ is one of the most important steps in the production of dailies. If the paper comes late or it is not in perfect condition, readers will quickly become unhappy with the service. If this happens frequently, they will not wait long to cancel their subscription. In this blog post, I will describe how adesso optimises the last mile in newspaper delivery.

In this blog post, I would like to describe what the digital pension overview is, why the platform represents an important step towards greater transparent in retirement provisions and what changes insurance companies have to make to adapt.

The growing number of heat pumps, photovoltaic systems and wallboxes for EVs that are installed presents energy suppliers and grid operators with the challenge of how to handle the deluge of requests for grid connections and extensions. In this blog post, I will show you how we can help our customers meet this challenge.

Occupational pension schemes and occupational health insurance plans are often faced with the challenge of having to implement a digital solution. In practical terms, this means they have to prepare the corresponding tender documents (including a catalogue of requirements), define the evaluation criteria for the quotations they receive and choose which of the bidding companies they wish to go with. You can find out how adesso supports (prospective) customers during the tender process in my blog post.

Lab 4.0 is garnering a lot of attention at the moment – and rightfully so. It is more than just a passing trend; it marks a major leap forward in both technology and how we think on a societal level. But what exactly is lab 4.0? What are the goals being pursued with its rollout and what is the timeline on when they might be achieved? I explore these questions in my latest blog post.

Innovation and human experience are at the heart of the ever-changing world we live in. Identifying meaningful trends that align with fundamental human needs enables innovators to thrive in this fast-paced environment. In this blog post, I will discuss three key trends highlighted at adesso's Digital Day in June 2023 - The Genesis Moment, Simulated Everything and Public Goods.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has started receiving bad publicity since Midjourney and ChatGPT came on to the scene. Not only are the ethical and economic implications of large-scale AI models the subject of much discussion, concerns about their environmental impact are getting louder, too. With that in mind, I will use this blog post to explore the question of how sustainable AI really is and – spoiler alert – what we need to do to make AI more sustainable. You will also learn why training the models is not the biggest problem from an environmental standpoint.
