On February 6th, Peter Thissen had the honor of hosting a delegation from the Plexon Peer Academy for an evening dedicated to Smart Industry on behalf of Nobleo Manufacturing.
A key highlight of the evening was an introduction to the Smart Industry Readiness Index (SIRI) by Berend Steenhuisen, Program Lead Manufacturing Intelligence at Nobleo Manufacturing. SIRI provides a structured approach for organizations to assess and enhance their digital transformation, a crucial step in creating the factories of the future.
The discussions became even more tangible with a deep dive into the Van Wijnen housing factory in Heerenveen, Europe’s largest industrial construction initiative. Hilbrand Katsma, CEO at Van Wijnen Components, was featured on video sharing his experiences building a state-of-the-art, future-proof production facility.
The evening concluded with interactive intervision assignments, where attendees collaborated on real-world industry challenges. The discussions carried on well into the informal networking session, reflecting the strong engagement and enthusiasm for the future of manufacturing.
At Nobleo Manufacturing, we focus on practical innovation and sharing knowledge to drive real impact in the industry. These events highlight the value of collaboration in advancing smart manufacturing. A special thank you to all speakers, and participants for making this an inspiring and insightful evening. We look forward to continuing these valuable exchanges in the future!
