In addition\, the fourth industrial revolution is relevant to a d igital transformation in the Asia-Pacific supply value chain processes. Wi thin such industrial processes\, digital technologies such as cyber physic al systems\, the Internet of things and cloud computing will be increasing ly embraced. The essential goal of new industrial revolution is to make ma nufacturing faster\, more efficient and more customer-centric. However\, i t is claimed that challenges may be brought about\, include IT security\, reliability and continuous productivity\, industrial knowhow protection\, lack of adequate skill-sets\, loss of jobs to automatic and IT-controlled process and so on. Does the coming of new industrial revolution offer more economic opportunities? How does it play a role of economic growth? What are the potential solutions for relevant challenges\, if there is any?\n&n bsp\;\nSession Chair:\n\n\n\n\nAlbert Ting\, Vice Chairman\, CTPECC\n\n\n \n\n \;\nSpeakers:\n\n\n\n\nStephen Ezell\, Vice President\, Informati on Technology and Innovation Foundation\n\n\nChorng-Tyan Lin\, Director\, Metal Industries Research &\; Development Centre\n\n\n\n\n \;\nDisc ussants\n\n\n\n\nKyunjin Song\, President\, Institute for Global Economics \, Seoul\, Korea\n\n\nWangbor Chen\, CEO\, Bordao Co.\n\n\nCan Van Luc\, S EVP of BIDV\; Director of BIDV Training School\; Member of VNCPEC\n\n\nEdu ardo Pedrosa\, Secretary General\, Pacific Economic Cooperation Council\n \n\n\n\n \;\nQ&\;A\n \;\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, 15 November 2017\n  \;\n\n\n\n\n1000 - 1200\n\n\nRoundtable Session\nIn the roundtable se ssion\, issues analyzed and conclusions made in previous sessions on Day 1 will be thoroughly an unreservedly discussed.\n \;\nSession Chair:\n \n\n\n\nMignonne Chan\, Founder &\; CEO\, Out-of-the-Box Consultancy\n \n\n\n\n \;\nDiscussants:\n\n\n\n\nAll speakers\, discussants and Chin ese Taipei participants\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n https://mail.old.pecc.org/event-ca lendar/past-events/event/513-the-32nd-pacific-economic-community-seminar-q uest-for-economic-growth-engines DTSTART:20171114T050000Z DTEND:20171116T001000Z LOCATION:Chinese Taipei\, Taipei () SUMMARY:The 32nd Pacific Economic Community Seminar - Quest for Economic G rowth Engines URL:https://mail.old.pecc.org/event-calendar/past-events/event/513-the-32nd -pacific-economic-community-seminar-quest-for-economic-growth-engines END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
