Best of LinkedIn: Smart Manufacturing CW 25/ 26

Smart Manufacturing is entering a more demanding phase. The market is moving beyond isolated pilots and technology narratives toward industrial-grade execution, where AI, robotics, digital twins and software-defined automation must integrate with real processes, trusted data, legacy assets and measurable business outcomes.

Best of LinkedIn: Digital Powertools CW 21/ 22

The Digital Powertools conversation was shaped by smarter jobsites, safer execution, and stronger market activation. Brands used the period to showcase product innovation, expand training and event visibility, deepen partnerships, and reinforce operational excellence across regions.

Best of LinkedIn: Digital Products & Services CW 28/ 29

Product management is being restructured around AI on three fronts at once: how PMs work day to day, how organizations decide what to build, and how customer evidence gets turned into direction. The through line across this edition is a shift in what counts as scarce. Building has become cheap and fast, so judgment, taste, and the discipline to say no are becoming the real differentiators, while the operating model around AI, not the model itself, is where teams are winning or losing.

Best of LinkedIn: Defense Tech CW 28/ 29

Defense tech is entering a phase where capital is moving faster than doctrine can absorb it. European valuations are compounding at a pace usually reserved for consumer software, yet Ukraine and the Middle East keep showing that training pipelines, maintenance depots and industrial capacity, not platforms, decide who wins. Three forces stand out this edition: capital normalizing around defense and dual-use, a shift from buying drones to buying production ecosystems, and governments moving from pilots to real programs of record.

Best of LinkedIn: Health Tech CW 28/ 29

Health tech's conversation this period runs on two parallel tracks. Health systems and vendors are moving past pilot enthusiasm toward governance, accountability, and measurable clinical value for AI, while robotic surgery, digital twins, imaging, and funding activity keep advancing on their own timeline, increasingly shaped by the same governments now writing AI specific rules.
