The Digital Sales Room - The Future of Manufacturing Sales

Manufacturers today must adapt to a fast-evolving sales landscape where digital engagement is critical. This session delves into how Product Information Management (PIM), Digital Asset Management (DAM), and Product Experience Management (PXM) are transforming how manufacturers market, sell, and deliver value. Attendees will discover how to centralize and enrich product data, craft engaging product experiences, and empower sales teams with digital tools that accelerate deal closures. Through real-world examples, we’ll illustrate how these technologies enhance efficiency, enable personalization, and drive measurable growth. Learn how to build your own “Digital Sales Room” to connect with customers more effectively, reduce sales cycles, and stay ahead in the competitive manufacturing space by embracing digital transformation across the value chain.

Securing Singapore's Smart Factories: Bridging the IT-OT Cyber Divide

• The Urgent Challenge: As Singapore's manufacturing sector accelerates its Industry 4.0 transformation guided by the Smart Industry Readiness Index (SIRI), it faces a rapidly growing wave of sophisticated cyber threats. This presentation highlights a critical vulnerability: the cultural and technical divide between Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT), where traditional IT security models (like ISO 27001) fail to address the safety and availability requirements of the factory floor.
• The Singaporean Solution: This paper outlines the tailored, pragmatic strategy promoted by the Cybersecurity Agency of Singapore (CSA) to build ecosystem-wide resilience. We will explore how CSA's Cyber Essentials provides a "minimum viable protection" baseline specifically designed for SMEs, and how the Cyber Trust Mark serves as a valuable certification to demonstrate maturity and build trust.
• A Pathway to Advanced Resilience: For organizations ready to advance, the presentation will map the international standard IEC 62443 as the gold standard for securing Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS), demonstrating how it directly addresses the IT-OT convergence challenge and aligns with the SIRI framework.
• The Future Threat: We will also sound the alarm on the looming quantum computing threat—specifically the "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" (HNDL) attack strategy—that already jeopardizes the long-term confidentiality of valuable intellectual property and R&D data.
• Call to Action: Attendees will leave with a clear, actionable roadmap—from implementing basic Cyber Essentials to planning for advanced OT security and quantum readiness—to safeguard their operations, protect Singapore's economic interests, and secure their place in a resilient Smart Nation.
