The project of National strategy 4.0 (here in Ukr) has been created by APPAU experts on Dec-2018. Since that time, it is largely communicated to State bodies to find synchronization points and to establish common plans. The total cost of projects is estimated in 25 million Hryvna. Till May-2019 no project is accepted or validated by Government, as well as the Strategy itself.  

Current Status and Priorites:

On Jan-2019 APPAU takes the decision to support 6 projects (of 13) by own means. On Feb-2019, some communication starts between APPAU and Ministry of Education and Science (who is responsible for new Innovation strategy), later with Ministry of Economic development and Trade. However, chance to find true support and financing by State stakeholders are estimated by APPAU as close to zero. The big round table ‘Government – Business: synchronization in project Industry 4.0’ is planned on 14th of March.   

Nevertheless, communication and search of partners lasts.  

The general map of projects scope is the next.

 The current, still not validated initiatives are in yellow, the validated and launched ones are in green. 

 

  Resuming, the most prioritized projects where APPAU look for donors and partners concerns of 6 main directions:  

1. The audit of innovative potential, at the regional and industry level.  
2. Creation of industry roadmap of digital transformation (2 sectors are in focus, Food and Machinery) 
3. Fostering of innovative ecosystem at the base of network of regional Center 4.0 as well as creation of regional EAM clusters (Engineering, Automation, Machinery) 
4. Development of export potential / creation of trade mission to support cluster and 4.0 developers 
5. Standardization / the large implementation of new standards IEC/ISO compatible woth RAMI model of Industry 4.0. The focus is made on standards relevant to cyber-security and safety.
