The slogan of the German-Lithuanian Business Award 2017 is “Digital networking – prepared for Industry 4.0”. In total eleven companies that optimized their workflows trough digitalized processes and use Industry 4.0 actively, applied for this competition. After a preselection five remaining finalists got visited by a jury and were evaluated in an online voting.

Already today skills and capacities in this area are inevitable for important investment decisions. For this reason I hope that this awards ceremony is a good example for others; the participating companies definitely convinced the jury”, – Jutta Schmitz, German ambassador to Lithuania.
