A SEAT at THE TABLE: Conversations with Today's Top Industry Leaders

Almost every business leader is discussing what role AI will play in their company.
For manufacturers, AI is considered to be foundational to the move towards Industry 4.0.
However most manufacturers are not quite sure how to specifically apply AI to their operations. How to go from theory to practical application.
Meet Bryan DeBois, director of Industrial AI at RoviSys, one of the largest independent global system integrators focused on manufacturing.
Today on A Seat at The Table, we’ll be answering some of the questions manufacturers have about operationalising technologies such as AI, Data Infrastructure and Advanced Analytics - and how they can boost productivity for manufacturers.
Bryan will be discussing
1. How smart factories are transforming the manufacturing industry with data and AI
2. How to start a digital transformation journey for medium-to-large manufacturing companies
3. How to integrate a new data pipeline into an existing infrastructure with minimal disruption to its operations?
4. The role that key humans will play in new tech-driven operations.
Despite all the advancements in technology, people still play a vital role in the success of a business. That’s why top companies invest in getting the best talent on board.
However finding good people is not always easy - especially when you need people with very specific skills or experience, such as with new technologies.
That’s why leading companies turn to Asianet Consultants to help them recruit that winning talent that will give them a competitive edge.
Asianet has decades of experience and a vast network that gives them an edge in finding the right executives for even niche positions.

The Critical Advantage of Building a Manufacturing Brand

We often talk about brands on this show, but so far we’ve never talked about manufacturing brands.
In fact, until this guest came on A Seat at The Table, I hadn’t given it much thought.
Turns out, I was overlooking a huge marketing opportunity - and it seems that a lot of businesses are too!
Today Jim Huebner joins us on a Seat at The Table to discuss what manufacturers need to now know about branding to not only grow their market but to also protect the market share they already have.
Jim is the Founder and CEO of Huebner Integrated Marketing, a 34-year-old company devoted to helping manufacturing brands become more relevant to their customers and sales channels, and to become more profitable in the process.
Today he’ll be sharing
1. What makes a manufacturing brand relevant to today’s consumers.
2. The process for helping brands establish their most robust brand positioning.
3. The 4 pillars of his “GIVE Manifesto” - What that means
A great brand can lift a product out of obscurity and give it a new life. In a similar way, great leadership can play a pivot role in getting a business back on track or in driving it to greater success.
To take your company to the next level, you need top talent who understand the market - and understands your product.
To find the best talent, brands look to Asianet Consultants. They have an extensive network that helps them connect with leading directors, managers and tech experts.
It’s why both enterprises and indie companies look to Asianet when they need to fill a difficult to fulfill position.
