The topic Industry 4.0 is extremely important for the development of the electrical industry not only in Bulgaria, but also in the entire EU. Our country's goal is to create prerequisites for modernization, automation and competitive positioning of the Bulgarian economy through the widespread introduction of digitization in production processes. Unfortunately, the events held on the subject affect too generally the essence and advantages of the new European industrial policy.
Looking for opportunities to provide clearer and more specific information about Industry 4.0 for the benefit of BASEL member companies, we established contact with Prof. Zhivka Ovcharova, who is the director of the Institute for Information Management in Engineering at the Karlsruhe https://www.imi.kit.edu/english/index.php Institute of Technology Mrs. Ovcharova is one of the most prominent specialists in the field of Industry 4.0 in Germany. She was named by the specialized publication "Edition F" as one of the "25 leaders of the digital future" in Germany.
Prof. Ovcharova accepted the proposal for a partnership between BASEL and the Institute she leads and shared that it is best to approach the topic pragmatically, i.e. to organize an online meeting of BASEL representatives with her to present her experience in the implementation of Industry 4.0 in German companies. After that, willing BASEL member companies will be given the opportunity to engage in a series of practical measures to introduce elements of the system.
