The new president of the College of Industrial Engineers, Marqueta, begins her term with the goal of bringing members closer to the productive sector. During her inauguration, she emphasized the need to adapt to technological and economic changes. Her plan includes continuous training, mentorship, and programs for young professionals, with a special focus on sustainability and digitalization.
Working groups for Industry 4.0 and mobility 🏭
Marqueta's strategy includes the creation of specific working groups in energy and mobility, pillars of industrial transformation. The goal is to integrate Industry 4.0 tools such as IoT, artificial intelligence, and automation into production processes. Digitalization is not a luxury, but a necessity to maintain competitiveness. The college will act as a catalyst between technical training and real market demands, facilitating the transition towards more efficient and sustainable models.
Less bureaucracy and more coffee with colleagues ☕
Amid all the strategic planning, Marqueta also promises networking. In other words, engineers should stop staring at Excel and grab a coffee to talk about projects. Because, let's be honest, Industry 4.0 is advancing, but the real challenge is getting someone to reply to an email within three days. Hopefully, the new working groups will serve more than just organizing Christmas dinners.
