As demand for connected products grows, the pressure to quickly create and launch innovative digital products also increases. To get an idea of how modern manufacturing organizations are adapting to current issues like the semiconductor shortage, we commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a global study with 262 embedded device and connected product development decision-makers from managers to C-level executives. The study shows that more than 80% of manufacturers are affected by the challenges in producing digital products and services and need to adapt to supply chain shocks and shortages.
