This year’s hub:disrupt in Dresden demonstrated that the future takes shape where ideas are put into action. The tech festival served as a meeting place for visionaries and innovators to discuss the opportunities offered by co-innovation. In addition to topics such as robotics, data analysis, and quantum computing, the Manufacturing-X data ecosystem also played a central role. 

Angelina Marko not only presented our project during a panel discussion but was also invited to deliver her own keynote address. This underscores the importance of knowledge transfer and scaling within the data ecosystem. The many engaging conversations that followed made it clear that many companies have embraced the concept of secure, digital data exchange. Now it is up to us to show them the way into the data space through real-world examples and concrete steps.  

The message of the day was clear: secure data sharing is key to advancing digitalization and ensuring the competitiveness of German and European industry. 

We are convinced that resilience, security, and efficient collaboration are best achieved through a robust data ecosystem. Now is the time to share the insights gained from the numerous X projects and take the next step together.
