In 2021, the term Industry 4.0 (i.e. smart factory technology) and the Fourth Industrial Revolution will celebrate their tenth anniversary. In our daily lives, artificial intelligence, robotization, Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, 3D technologies, virtual and augmented realities become increasingly common. In the mining industry, digital technology presents new opportunities for enhancing operations and increasing productivity.

Mining companies can improve production and efficiency with new Industry 4.0 technologies. Through the digital transformation of enterprises, the role and place of the individual in society as well as the entire structure of society are changing. As companies strive towards sustainable development, much depends on how successful they are at resolving the cultural issues within their organisations.

MineDigital competition is organised on 6-7 October 2021 at the MINEX Russia forum.

Address: Radisson Slavyanskaya Hotel, Europe Square 2, 121059, Moscow

Contenders are invited to submit their applications before 15 August
