Consider, for example, smart asset management applications such as <a href=\"https:\/\/gemba.nl\/en\/visual-inspection-with-ai-how-do-you-implement-it\/\">IBM MAS Visual Inspection<\/a>.

Companies that manage their assets in the right way and make the right maintenance choices reduce their impact on our environment. At Gemba, we are working on the question of how we can make sustainability part of our portfolio, in the form of concrete solutions. That is something we will be considering further in 2024.   <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; header_2_font=&#8221;Titillium Web|600|||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;36px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;2px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.3em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||12px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;50px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;50px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;50px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;flip&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;28px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"bullet\" src=\"https:\/\/gemba.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Vector-5.png\"> Plenty of innovation plans<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|300|||||||&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;22px&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;left&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The attention for technological innovation, whether or not driven by sustainability, is increasing.
