The challenges of the Industry 4.0 revolution will be overcome with knowledge, says Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen.
He made the remark while speaking at the certificate awarding ceremony for the workshop titled “Bangabandhu- Cambridge Policy Simulation Lab” at state guest house Padma Wednesday (Sept 4).
In his speech, the minister said the Bangabandhu–Cambridge Policy Innovation Programme is the newest addition to the growing portfolio of innovation initiatives of the government.
“We hope to make this programme with the University of Cambridge as a mission to the ‘knowledge domain’ by applying a combination of socio-eco-systems and engineering design methods developed by Cambridge’s Resilience and Sustainable Development Programme (RSDP), in the post-LDC Bangladesh context,” he said.
About the fourth Industrial Revolution, he said it is existential in nature.
“This rapid evolution in digital architectures, digitalization, robotics, and intelligent automation will have a verifiable impact on the way both lives and livelihoods are design in the future.”
About 30 participants took part in the four-day-long programme.
