SUMMARY:AIST - Digital Transformation Forum for the Steel Industry
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 Digital Transformation Forum for the Steel Industry is a leading platform for steel producers\, technology experts and innovators to engage in the ongoing evolution of digitalization across the steel industry. Building on the momentum of previous forums\, the program shifts focus to the practical realities of artificial intelligence (AI): how it’s being used today in the steel industry\, and what’s truly required to make it deliver value. \nThe 2026 program will center on generative AI as a transformative technology\, with a focus on how it’s being applied to plant challenges like safety\, predictive maintenance and process innovation. The forum will explore the conditions needed for success — from data readiness and quality to effective integration strategies — through case studies\, panel discussions\, and technical papers. The program will give attendees a candid and collaborative look at how generative AI is reshaping steel — across operations\, supervision and process automation. \nThis forum is designed for decision-makers\, technical leaders\, and digital transformation experts seeking actionable insights into launching\, scaling\, and sustaining digital transformation initiatives within their organizations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Digital Transformation Forum for the Steel Industry
DESCRIPTION:Keynote: From Islands to Ecosystems: Interoperability as the Steel Industry’s Productivity Engine\nJohn Dyck\, CESMII – The Smart Manufacturing Institute | 10am ET at the Sheraton Pittsburgh Hotel\, Station Square. \nAs steelmakers invest in new capacity and upgrades\, the biggest productivity gains will come from interoperability — not equipment size or speed. This keynote argues that standardization and connected architectures can deliver step-change improvements in yield\, throughput\, quality\, energy performance and traceability. It outlines a practical path from siloed systems to vendor-neutral\, plug-and-play operations using common identifiers\, shared data semantics and open interfaces. Standardized information models reduce integration time\, ease technical debt and enable tighter supplier connectivity — critical in capital-constrained\, talent-tight environments. By creating a consistent data foundation\, interoperability also makes AI scalable\, turning legacy assets and process data into reliable\, production-ready insights. The result is a coordinated\, learning production system where every reshoring investment delivers amplified value.
