The Smart Service Welt 2025 vision focuses on manufacturing, both to provide continuity with the vision of Industrie 4.0 and because Germany is starting from a particularly strong position in this area.
Nevertheless, it can also be directly carried over to other fields of application. Automated marketplaces for logistics service providers are already a reality in the private transport sector today and can be expected to become established in heavy goods transport in the future. Data-based optimisation of the value chain – covering everything from seed quantities and fertiliser type to the entire harvest processing and logistics chain – will become increasingly widespread in the agricultural sector. Healthcare will benefit from significant gains in effectiveness and efficiency as a result of both decentralized monitoring of patients’ condition through continuous data collection and personalised treatment thanks to the improved diagnoses enabled by intelligent algorithms.
