This is the very first episode of Industry4cast by KFactory. The two hosts - KFactory co-founders Adrian Dima and Vlad Cazan - introduce themselves, the company they are building, and the show: the first Romanian podcast dedicated to digitalisation in production companies.
The framing matters because, in April 2021, the Romanian conversation about Industry 4.0 was happening in pieces - some on industry panels, some in trade publications, some in private. Industry4cast is the place where those pieces sit alongside each other on tape, in Romanian, with the people who are actually doing the work.
Over the next nine months, the show will host a deliberate cross-section: factory managers, VC and PE investors, education specialists, ecosystem builders, and industry-association leaders - mapping what digitalisation in Romanian manufacturing really looks like at every layer.
