The Future of Manufacturing in a Multipolar World
A Shifting Paradigm Will Revolutionize Geographic Expansion Strategies in the Global Manufacturing Market
The COVID-19 pandemic marked a major global change that transformed manufacturing. Political tensions, such as the US-China conflict and the Russo-Ukrainian War; economic uncertainties, such as high inflation rates and de-dollarization initiatives; and continuous supply chain disruptions have forced manufacturers to invest in technology to secure reliable and sustainable operations. As a multipolar world becomes increasingly possible with the rise of BRICS countries over the pax Americana, the trajectory for manufacturing will be influenced by a range of factors including sovereign debt, inflation, banking crises, de-dollarization efforts, geopolitical rivalries, climate change, and advancements in artificial intelligence.
In this study, Frost & Sullivan identifies and analyzes how the aforementioned mega trends will shape the future of manufacturing and directly impact companies´ growth and innovation performance. This study highlights the factors driving and restraining growth in the global manufacturing landscape and identifies opportunities emerging from this dynamic environment for industry stakeholders to leverage.
