SIEMENS XCELERATOR: Shaping the Metaverse from Simulation to Reality
Matej Kupljenik, Head of Digital Industries Siemens Operating Company at SIEMENS ltd, Slovenia.

As a highly skilled and accomplished sales and marketing professional with over 20 years of experience in the dynamic field of digital industries, Mr. Kupljenik has consistently excelled in diverse leadership roles at Siemens.

SIEMENS XCELERATOR – The Industrial Metaverse is a virtual world where an infinite number of people can meet, work, shop, or socialize. It is nothing less than a new plane of existence, one that will change the way we live forever. The industrial metaverse offers the possibility to optimize our constructions, production systems, and innovations using simulation, detect any mistakes, and make the decisions that will eventually have an impact on reality. All of this is also beneficial to sustainability because it has long been a goal to convince mankind to consume less.
Understanding the fundamental principles for the digitalization of modern manufacturing plants is crucial as you embark on your digitalization journey. It is imperative to be mindful of the key factors that require attention to ensure a successful transformation in the realm of digital manufacturing. Vanja will precisely explain these essential factors for you.
With e-signatures, your business will truly become paperless. Even the optimum paperless operations can be brought to a sudden halt if a document needs signing. The process of signing usually means that a document needs to be printed out, signed and then scanned in order to be put in the mSef e-storage or stored in the archive cabinet. In the lecture we will show you, how can you achieve tremendous savings in operating costs, while also complying with statutory requirements regarding security, and preventing any subsequent denial of credibility as well as any unauthorised interference in the already notarised documents.
DSV Global Transport and Logistics, and Reusable Technologies, cooperate on bringing circular economy from office schematics into real life on field. With the first reusable powerbank in the world being manufactured as we read these lines, they pioneer this kind of new approach, to prove the feasibility of such an approach.
Digital Transformation (DX) is a must for growth and expansion of any business. But with the expansion of the technology footprint it also dramatically increases the risk of a cyberattack. When you consider the increase in risk, there is a need for specialized IT professionals that can manage the complexities of keeping organizations secure. That widening skill gap has put a big strain on a business’s cybersecurity posture and budget to manage the risk of a cyber attack. According to a study done by the Allianz Group Cybersecurity is one of the top 3 business risks in 2019; understanding how to approach and mitigate the risk will be a top priority for executives over the next three years. A part of the presentation will be a good practice example from Gorenjska region (Slovenia).
