Trust, Collaboration and Scalability: The Building Blocks of Successful Partnerships
We recently gathered our Nordic Innovation Network Partners for a full-day event in Ystad, Nordic Parter Summit 2025. In addition to being a welcome opportunity to meet in person with our skilled partners from across the Nordic region, the day also gave me cause to reflect on the value of partnerships in today's industrial landscape – and why partnerships are an essential building block for Omron here in the Nordic region.

How to build resilience into every manufacturing decision
Thriving through turbulence: How to build resilience into every manufacturing decisionIn the world today, adaptability is no longer only a competitive advantage, it’s a necessity. Manufacturers across all sectors face continuous disruption: changing regulations, unpredictable demand, shifting supply chains, a growing workforce shortage and skills gap. Resilience isn’t something that can be tacked on after the fact. It must be designed into the system, embedded in strategy, and reinforced through technology and culture.Here are five key principles for designing resilience into manufacturing operations:1. Put customers and partners firstResilient manufacturers share a common trait: they prioritize long-term relationships. In our experience, strong partnerships, with both customers and technology providers, create a foundation of trust that becomes invaluable during disruption. This foundation will also become stronger and more robust over time. Whether it’s a global component shortage or a sudden regulatory shift, companies that operate with openness, loyalty, and collaboration respond faster and more effectively. These human connections are just as important to resilience as any machine or system.

The next operating system for manufacturing in Europe: From control to coexistence
For more than two centuries, the story of industrial progress has been written in the language of control. Control over machines. Control over processes. Control over resources and, at times, even over people. This was the logic that powered mass production and global supply chains.But today, its limits are becoming clear.The global manufacturing industry now operates in a world defined by climate volatility, energy insecurity, demographic contraction, and geopolitical fragmentation. In Europe, where energy costs are high, labour is scarce, and global competition intense, success will depend not on scale or speed but on our ability to combine technology, human values, and collaboration into a more resilient model of progress. At the Osaka Expo 2025, Ikuo Tateishi, President of the Human Renaissance Institute and grandson of OMRON’s founder, delivered a clear message: the age of maximization and control is ending.- and a new age of coexistence is beginning.The old industrial operating system, built for predictability and optimization, needs to be replaced with adaptive, co-creative networks connecting people, machines, and the planet.
