The history of industrial revolutions has moved forward by shifting core resources—from coal to oil to electricity—each time resetting society’s goals and values. Today, with “data” as a new resource, multiple data-driven manufacturing systems are linking up, reshaping partnerships as needed, and expanding optimization across factories, companies, regions, and countries.

Under this year’s theme, “The Future of Data-Driven Manufacturing: Collaboration and Transformation,” the Robot Revolution & Industrial IoT International Symposium 2025 looks at how to use data based on collaboration—and the industrial changes that will follow.

On Session Day (October 21), we will host experts and leaders from Germany’s Plattform Industrie 4.0 and the U.S. CESMII. We will center the discussion on system-wide optimization through data sharing, broaden it to the shared foundations that enable collaboration, and review trends in data spaces in Japan and abroad. From there, we will connect to governance design that keeps a human-set course while preparing for the rise of AI and autonomy. We will also offer a hands-on demo inspired by the Industrial Metaverse and an evening networking session to deepen understanding and partnerships.

RRI serves as a neutral hub connecting industry, government, and academia, bridging on-the-ground challenges with policy, standards, and technology. The key questions—who to collaborate with, and how to drive transformation—start here.

Session Day: Tue., Oct 21, 2025, 10AM–18PM (JST)@12F Takadanobaba Center Building+ Online
