Are you ready to redefine the way you perceive automation? This eye-opening discussion with KATEK COO, Dr. Marc Achhammer, was filmed on location at Productronica 2023. We navigate the labyrinth of maximizing asset use and enticing fresh blood into the industry. You'll get a fresh perspective on automation's dual benefits - from its crucial role in enhancing capacity in a tight labor market, to its crucial contribution to maintaining Europe's competitive edge.

As we explore 2024, we engage with Marc on whether it could be a year of efficiency instead of the high growth we associate with recent years. We pick Marc's brain on the pressing need for improved operational efficiency and smarter use of human and capital assets amidst a potential recession. We also explore the tricky terrain of inventory management, the bullwhip effect, and the challenges faces in managing inventory amidst rapid growth.
