Among the most revealing data points, the study highlights that 8 out of 10 factories still use Excel to analyze production, and only 32% of companies have integrated systems. It also reveals that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face the greatest difficulties on the path to digitalization. This is supported by data from the European Commission, showing that only 53.6% of Portuguese SMEs have achieved a basic level of digital intensity, placing Portugal below the European average in terms of digital competitiveness. Despite these challenges, the study offers an optimistic outlook: industry professionals recognize digitalization as a key driver of progress and innovation.

The future of the industry lies in digitalization. Companies that fail to embrace this transformation risk falling behind in an increasingly competitive market.
