Lighthouses have proven that productivity, sustainability, and workforce engagement goals can be met and exceeded at scale with Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies – and our pioneers have not stood still.

Hear from founding members of the Global Lighthouse Network about how their initial investments in tech-enabled operations have inspired them to continue their journey to improve manufacturing performance, navigate volatility, and enjoy successes that extend beyond the bottom line.

The Global Lighthouse Network is a World Economic Forum initiative co-founded with McKinsey. It examines the future of operations and considers how Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies are shaping production. This growing community of organizations is setting the trends of the future with their use of digital and analytics tools across the value chain to drive growth and productivity, improve resilience, and deliver environmental sustainability.
