Masterclass Synopsis
This masterclass is designed for forward-thinking manufacturing leaders and professionals who are ready to embrace Industry 5.0. Combining strategic insights with hands-on experimentation, the program offers a dual focus: harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for manufacturing transformation and embedding Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles as a strategic advantage.
Through a blend of expert presentations, interactive discussions, and practical exercises, participants will gain actionable knowledge and real-world skills to drive innovation, compliance, and competitiveness in their organisations.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this masterclass, participants will be:
- Understanding how AI fundamentals apply to manufacturing and how intelligent systems are reshaping productivity, quality, and innovation.
- Applying predictive maintenance techniques using time series data, learning how to detect early failure signals and reduce unplanned downtime.
- Generating synthetic datasets for analysis, enabling safe and accelerated testing of AI models without disrupting live production environments.
- Leveraging AI copilots to auto-generate Python scripts, streamlining analytics workflows and empowering non-technical users to run advanced models.
- Interpreting mandatory ESG reporting requirements using ISSB standards to ensure accurate, transparent, and compliant disclosures.
- Recognising and mitigating ESG risks such as greenwashing and litigation while capturing opportunities in Scope 3 value chains.
- Conducting rapid ESG readiness assessments to identify strengths, gaps, and opportunities for sustainable transformation across operations.
- Positioning ESG as a business advantage, aligning sustainability efforts with profitability, stakeholder trust, and innovation growth.
