Firstly your product side and awareness of disruptive influences - disrupt yourself. Change product offerings to take advantage of digital means. Consider servitization. Consider manufacturing as a service - everything as a service. Develop your strategy - incubate new ideas.
On the internal side, we operate in the realms of Industry4 and IIoT - to help you to develop a digital road map of appropriate technology.

Agile comes into its own here; start-up outside the constraints of corporate structure – begin with a relevant outcome - pick just a few key projects and deliver fast - minimum viable products.
Fail fast and maintain a funnel of new ideas - kill your darlings – pivot fast but, whatever you do, make a start now.
