Driving sustainable investment in African Mining

Tech-In-Action – Safety at the core of production

This Tech-In-Action session explores what lies beyond Industry 4.0 for mining operations, highlighting how safety driven production depends on unified, accessible platforms that integrate collision avoidance, operator alertness, personal protection, and vehicle intervention. As mines expand deeper and more complex environments emerge, technology alone cannot solve operational challenges - effective communication, collaboration, and continuous operator engagement remain critical. By viewing mining as a tightly coordinated performance where equipment and operators must work in deliberate harmony, the discussion shows how advanced safety systems can enhance both protection and productivity. The session also emphasizes the growing importance of partnerships in training, education, and change management to strengthen trust and cultivate a resilient safety culture.
