SIGN UP FOR ONE OF THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM STATEMENTS
Industry:
Cloud computing in industrial applications: For which industrial
applications does a (quantifiable) use arisefrom it? Which are the
typical applications in verticals like automotive, food &
beverage, chemical and
pharma. Which partners (business ecosystem) are necessary to
transact a complete application? Which
partner in the ecosystem has which benefit? Which business
models are used? Where are the cost drivers?
Which kind of cost arising? - Total cost of ownership
Energy:
Siemens Energy is a strong market player in the wind business. A
major investment for a wind on-shoreconstruction is related to the
tower. How do you see improvements for even higher constructions as
of
today with less cost? Consider also logistical requirement for
the transport.
Transmission technology is a major portfolio element of Siemens
Energy up to voltage levels above 800kV.Beside point-to-point
connections it is the vision to establish one day an HVDC grid. A
first application field
could be the North Sea connecting various winds off shore parks.
What are the major development steps?
Where do you see hurdles?
Healthcare:
The aging population: What can we do to look into new solutions
for the challenge of the imbalancebetween human resources and the
aging development? How do we ensure a high life quality for our
elders?
How do we make sure that good health care is affordable in the
future for the coming generations?
Infrastucture & Cities:
In the year 2009 more than 50% of the worlds population lives in
cities. And this trend is still ongoing, theurban population will
increase to 4.7 billion in the year 2030. On the other side, cities
consume two-thirds of
the world's energy, 60% of its drinking water and produce up to
70% of its CO2 emissions. To counteract on
the actual problems, new installations could solve the problem
or existing infrastructure like roads could be
utilized in a more homogeneous way, i.e. with less traffic jams.
How could citizen contribute to a better city,
e.g. by organizing themselves with social networks?
