In this interview, Walker Reynolds reviews how he became interested in Digital Transformation/Industry 4.0, how he learned the ins and outs of these transformative technologies and what he sees happening in the future as manufacturing evolves from Industry 3.0 to 4.0 and how AI and other nascent technologies will help companies transform into Industry 5.0. Fascinating insights. Enjoy.

In this video Walker recommended that everyone interested in learning more and keeping up with what the industry, Intellic Integration and 4.0 Solutions are doing, should go to the IIoT University Discord site at:

· Would you say this was your initiation into transformative leadership?

• What’s coming… Digital Transformation and Industry 4.0 and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT):
· For our listeners who may not be familiar, can you give us an overview of what is the present state of manufacturing… or as it’s commonly called “Industry 3.0”?
· How must companies digitally transform into Industry 4.0 to be able to survive?
· (This is a huge topic and your YouTube videos go into much more detail than we may have time for you to explain here but if you could, give us some key points and highlights to consider.)
