Beschreibung

Industry 5.0 is the next phase of the industrial revolution, focusing on the harmonious coexistence of humans and high-tech systems based on the principles of artificial intelligence. However, small businesses are still in the early stages of adopting Industry 5.0 technologies, and small businesses in developing countries still see it as a mystery because of their vulnerabilities. This book explores the vulnerabilities that exist within the SME ecosystem and the significance of small businesses in our daily lives. With a balance of theoretical and empirical chapters, this book will lead the way in exploring small businesses and their future in Industry 5.0, with particular relevance to emerging markets.

With well-researched academic findings and forward-thinking insights from diverse authors, it will push forward research in the growing area of Industry 5.0 and artificial intelligence and will be vital reading for academics and practitioners interested in this field.
