Industrial manufacturers are particularly vulnerable to geopolitical disruption. Most companies in the scorecard have a global footprint that exposes them to sanctions and government scrutiny. There is also a high risk of cyberattacks. The majority of companies in the industrial automation scorecard score low on the geopolitical theme as a result. Companies must adapt their supply chains and better understand political risks to avoid financial and reputational damage moving forward.
Companies at the top of the scorecard all score highly in artificial intelligence (AI). Proficiency in AI typically translates to strength in other themes, such as robotics, digital twins, and smart cities. Siemens, the leader on the thematic screen of the industrial automation sector scorecard, uses AI to drive productivity and enhance its digital twins and robotics products. Companies that are leaders in industrial automation are therefore investing heavily in the next generation of AI.
