These are mostly medium-sized companies that are among the top 3 in their markets worldwide and impress with their high level of innovation.

Tour participants will gain exclusive insights into technological developments, new applications and highly specialized machines or systems that are often only known to insiders.

M4S TAKE
My take: AI claims need scrutiny. The useful implementations reduce cycle time or defect rates in measurable ways. Vague promises about 'optimization' without specific metrics are usually marketing.
