Our world is becoming increasingly digitalized – influencing everything from our communication with one another to the way we develop, produce and consume goods and services. The digitalization megatrend has not bypassed the rail sector. Siemens has kept pace here, too, and was exhibiting at the Innotrans 2016 with a focus on the digital transformation of rail transport.
On the first day of Hannover Messe, April 25, Klaus Helmrich welcomed you to the yearly Siemens press conference. As member of the Managing Board of Siemens AG, Klaus Helmrich is responsible for the Divisions Digital Factory as well as Process Industries and Drives. The press conference took place at 6:30 PM, in room 1 of the fair's Convention Center.
Digitalization will revolutionize the way we travel. Today, everyone expects to get from point A to point B quickly and efficiently. The vision: autonomous systems which communicate with one another. Intelligent intersections and information signs woring in concert with vehicles to make traffic safer, more efficient and more environmentally friendly.
From April 5 through 8, Siemens was keeping the world up to speed with its traffic control developments. During these four days, the company was presenting its latest road transport management innovations at Intertraffic.
