Report 2024 – New Perspectives for the Future of Manufacturing: Outlook 2030

The 2024 WMF report will address various tipping points that manufacturing companies and governments will encounter over the next five years. A “tipping point” is a critical threshold or point of no return that, when crossed, leads to large accelerating and often irreversible changes in industry, society, and the environment.

Focusing on the upcoming “positive” and “negative” tipping points for the manufacturing sector towards 2030, such as climate change, technological shifts, talent shortages, or new geopolitical realities, the 2024 WMF report will ambition to provide a strategic framework for global policy experts and industrial leaders to future-proof manufacturing companies and their supply chains in the face of a foreseen volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous business environment in the forthcoming years.

The 2024 WM Report will be available here on October 14, 2024.
