The first industrial revolution brought us the steam engine, the second brought us electricity, the third the computer, and the fourth revolution is bringing digitalisation.

“I expect that in the next twenty years about half of all tasks will be able to be done by machines or computers”, says Achim Berg, president of the digital association Bitkom.

Nowadays an electronics technician already reaches for an iPad at least as often as for a soldering iron. And a carpenter also has to be able to handle a computer controlled CNC wood saw. Today, painters and varnishers use digital applications to mix paints. eCommerce is incresasingly gaining in importance. Digital signage applications and viral marketing require vast quantities of digital content. Your home is becoming smart. And the fields of education and health are also having to undergo a digital transition in a very short time.

All these topics offer enormous potential for business. Continue to expand your product portfolio for your commercial transactions and your solution skills for digital workflows.
