Industry 5.0 as a North Star:
Towards a Sustainable, Human-Centric,
and Resilient Life Science Industry

Lars de Nul, Deputy Head of Unit Industry 5.0 and Artificial Intelligence in Science
at the European Commission

Life sciences are evolving, and Industry 5.0 offers a bold vision to guide the way. Unlike its predecessor, Industry 4.0, which focused on automation, Industry 5.0 places human well-being and sustainability at its core. Lars de Nul outlined the framework’s three key pillars—human-centricity, sustainability, and resilience—and explained how they redefine success in life sciences.

 

 

Key takeaways:

 

  • Human-centricity: Empowering people with technology to foster creativity and purpose in the workplace.
  • Sustainability: Designing processes that respect ecological limits while driving growth.
  • Resilience: Building adaptable systems to withstand future challenges.

 

Lars highlighted the European Commission’s Community of Practice as a collaborative space where diverse stakeholders unite to turn Industry 5.0’s vision into reality.
