Industry, Innovation: the effects on work and performance of companies the position of Italy in global value chains

The world of industry is changing at a speed and with pervasiveness, between sectors and social contexts, which are unprecedented in history. The structural factors that determine the changes act on different levels, sometimes very distant, and generate discontinuities, epochal leaps.

The CSC in Industrial Scenarios (and other publications) has long turned the spotlight on these changes and the factors that are at the origin. This year puts them in line and contextualizes better to stylize them and extract suggestions for companies and policies.

There are seven main fields on which it is necessary to act to address the epochal changes taking place in the industrial world:

Innovation

The globalization

The positioning in global value chains

Digital technologies 1, start now

Digital technologies 2, people first

The flight of young people

Productivity growth
