The International Transport Forum is an intergovernmental organisation with 64 member countries. It acts as a think tank for transport policy and organises the Annual Summit of transport ministers. ITF is the only global body that covers all transport modes. The ITF is politically autonomous and administratively integrated with the OECD. The ITF works for transport policies that improve people’s lives. Our mission is to foster a deeper understanding of the role of transport in economic growth, environmental sustainability and social inclusion and to raise the public profile of transport policy.

To rapidly scale their manufacturing, our clients need the ability to investigate issues and model the effects of process changes. Foundry integrates data and logic from every stage & every team, from input materials to reactor conditions, and creates a digital twin of the entire development and manufacturing process. This foundation opens the door to virtual experimentation — our clients can use scenario analyses to plan vendor changes, optimize bioreactor yield, and compare quality metrics through time. The net result is a dramatic increase in process development velocity to achieve more consistent yields and efficient ramp-up of new therapies.

The Industrial Internet of Things is shaking up the world of manufacturing and all of its supply chains. Thanks to IoT devices and the steady rollout of 5G connectivity, companies have an unprecedented look into the health of the shop floor, can monitor for shipping-disruptive weather conditions, and can plan maintenance to ensure the least amount of downtime. These sensors are an absolute revolution, but there’s a dark side to the sensors as well. Manufacturers must consider new cybersecurity concerns as each new IoT device represents a potential weak point in the company’s network. Each device presents a tempting target for hackers who are looking to break into the network, but focusing on the individual devices is the wrong answer to the problem. The solution should be a secure network using a zero-trust model.
