AI-Driven Innovation for Industry 4.0 to Society 5.0 signifies more than a technological leap—it marks the fusion of cyber-physical systems, IoT, machine learning, robotics, and ethical intelligence into sustainable, human-centered ecosystems, which aligns with UNSDG and Viksit Bharat@2047. While the Industry 4.0 revolutionized production through automation, smart factories, and predictive analytics, Society 5.0 envisions a future that transcends efficiency—where technology nurtures inclusivity, resilience, and environmental balance.

Globally, the Industry 4.0 market stood at USD 164.7 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 570.5 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 14.44%.

Conference Chair and Dean of Academic Prof. (Dr.) Tanya Singh said AI is poised to boost global GDP by up to 13% and trade by nearly 40% by 2040. The future depends on integrative, explainable, and ethical architectures—from CoBots and edge computing to circular economy models.
