Bosch organized a smart manufacturing conclave in Mumbai recently (on November 05, 2015). With this event, the company provides a platform for discourse about the possibilities and opportunities of connected manufacturing technology in India. Over 250 business leaders and key policy makers active in this field attended the conclave and shared their insights.
