4th Industrial Revolution Readiness Index
Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) uses the 4th Industrial Revolution Readiness Index to assess the level of implementation of technology among industrial facilities.

The index is recognised by World Economic Forum as a global standard for unifying 4IR concepts.
