From Explorer to Adopter and Trailblazer: Supporting All Stages of Transformation

ITAP 2025 is set against a backdrop of global trade uncertainty and economic fragmentation, which have intensified the drive across theAsia-Pacificmanufacturers'ecosystem to seek real-world progress. According the ITAP Intelligence 2025: Trends, Technologies& Transformation Across APAC — an industry-wide study commissioned by ITAP and conducted by IDC — 51% of manufacturers acrossAsia-Pacificremain in early-stage planning or piloting, especially in AI digitalisation, automation, and digital readiness. The rest (49%) are actively deploying and optimising solutions. This highlights a pressing need for practical roadmaps, scalable solutions and ecosystem support.

In response to the varying innovation readiness of manufacturers, ITAP 2025 adopts a targeted Explorer–Adopter–Trailblazer framework. This structured approach is designed to match content, strategic support, and deliver practical solution offerings to each stage of a manufacturer's digital transformation journey, enabling more tangible and impactful outcomes.

"Transformation is no longer aspirational – it's urgent,"said MsAudrey Leong, Portfolio Director at Constellar."ITAP 2025 is where decision-makers come to act. We're offering real-world solutions, use cases, and partner networks that help manufacturers move faster and smarter."

  • Explorers in early evaluation stages will find practical tools, pilot use cases, find peer-driven insights to guide initial steps to build their foundation.
  • Adopters scaling their efforts will benefit from integration roadmaps and technology showcase, designed to accelerate rollout across facilities.
  • Trailblazers at the forefront of industrial innovation already deploying Industry 4.0 and 5.0 solutions to extend their competitive advantage by engaging with next-generation solutions and strategic leadership content.

With the regional smart manufacturing market projected to reachUSD 754.1 billionby 2030 at a 15.7% CAGR (Fortune Business Insights), and digital transformation advancing at over 31.2% (Grand View Research), ITAP 2025 aims to bridge the gap between innovation and implementation, serving as a catalyst for transformation and enabling progress at every level of manufacturing.

Strategic Leadership at ITF 2025: Where Strategy Meets Scale

Returning as ITAP's anchor forum, the Industrial Transformation Forum (ITF) will convene 200 C-level executives and over 40 speakers to explore key themes including industrial AI, digitalisation, sustainable manufacturing, supply chain resilience, and workforce development.

"At ITF 2025, we are not just discussing transformation, we are enabling leaders to engineer it. This forum is where smart leadership meets executional clarity."said MsStephanie Liew, Chief Information Security Officer (APMEA),BAT; and Chairperson of ITF 2025.

From Showcase to Actionable Impact

ITAP 2025 will also unveil curated content that addresses top priorities of manufacturers across sectors, such as operational efficiency, rising costs, and technological integration.
