under the Zlín and South Moravian regions -

theNational Competence Centre for Semiconductors

focuses on technological issues. We see great

potential in the eld of advanced manufacturing

andautomation linked tothe digitization ofindustry.

What role does the Confederation

of Industry believe the Czech Republic

can play in European technological

and industrial supply chains – for

example in advanced manufacturing,

mechanical engineering, electronics,

or semiconductor technologies?

TheCzech Republic has thepotential tobecome one

ofEurope‘s key centres ofadvanced manufacturing.

Thanks to its strong tradition in mechanical

engineering, electrical engineering, and the

automotive industry, italready plays asignicant role

inEuropean industrial supply chains. Inthe future,

it can further strengthen its position, particularly

in the areas of technologically demanding

manufacturing, industrial equipment, electronics,

andindustrial software development.

If the Confederation of Industry were

to name one field or technology that

could most strengthen the international

position of Czech industry in the coming

years, what would it be?

We see great potential in the eld of advanced

manufacturing, automation andarticial intelligence

linked to the digitization of industry. It is precisely

the combination of traditionally strong Czech

engineering with modern technologies including

AI applications in industrial production, robotics

and data driven manufacturing that can help

Czech industry further strengthen its international

competitiveness. The development of new AI

infrastructure inCzechia, including theplanned AI

Factory inOstrava, can further accelerate innovation

and support the deployment of advanced digital

solutions across industry.

„Taiwan is perceived

by Czech industry as one

of the most important

technological partners

in Asia.“
