40、 Getulio Vargas(FVG).The role of countries like Brazil in the global manufacturing sphere relies heavily on their ability to harness technology to lead modern,innovative production systems and transition to higher-value-added offerings.In fact,Brazil is actively advancing its neo-industrialization a

41、genda,with a notable emphasis on digitalization and decarbonization initiatives to drive productivity and global competitiveness.Concerted efforts are directed towards rejuvenating SMEs,acknowledging their significant contributions to overall employment and industrial output.Such geographical shifts

42、 in value chain design,novel technology trends,and strengthened domestic industrial agendas also create new opportunities for local companies of all sizes to undertake a transformative journey and access new markets globally.Leading manufacturers globally are progressing beyond the initial stages of

43、 digital transformation,using technology to enhance operational efficiency and drive innovative changes in their business models.The journey to digital business model innovation involves venturing into new products,services,markets and segments to bolster agility,develop novel revenue models and att
