                                            Kai Uwe Ernst, Reply

4:45 - 5:15 PM                From the shop floor to the sovereign cloud:
                                              Securing the future of smart manufacturing
                                            Tobias Deml, Oracle

5:30 - 6:00 PM               Networking


Kai Uwe Ernst demonstrates how AI-supported, adaptive robots with digital twins and intelligent coordination layers can flexibly adapt production lines and perform autonomous maintenance tasks – and why these technologies are groundbreaking for the future of industry.
David Kelly complements this with insights into AI-first delivery strategies that deeply integrate AI into IT service processes and prepare organizations for an AI-driven future.
In this session, Tobias Deml demonstrates how Oracle Cloud and the EU Sovereign Cloud enable seamless, secure integration of data and applications, thereby laying the foundation for intelligent, future-proof manufacturing platforms.
The program will be rounded off with an enriching user presentation by Dr. Sebastian Skibinski from Deutsche Bahn.

Together, the presentations offer a holistic perspective – from simulation and robotics to cloud security – and provide concrete approaches for implementing physical AI in the production of tomorrow.
