Knowledge Management and Industry 4.0

New Paradigms for Value Creation (2020)

This book, edited by Eleonora Di Maria (Department of Economics and Management of the University of Padova), Marco Bettiol (Department of Economics and Management of the University of Padova) and Stefano Micelli (Ca' Foscari) published by Springer, provides evidence on how Industry 4.0 and knowledge management interact to create value.

The book discusses the opportunities and challenges of managing knowledge in the new reality of Industry 4.0. Addressing paradigmatic changes in value creation due to the development of digital technologies applied to manufacturing (additive manufacturing, IoT, robotics, etc.), it includes theoretical and empirical contributions on how Industry 4.0 technologies allow firms to create and exploit knowledge. The carefully selected expert contributions highlight the potential of these technologies in acquiring knowledge from a larger number of sources and examine approaches to innovation, organization of activities, and stakeholder development in the context of this next industrial revolution.
