Abstract

The importance of technological investment grows within the industry 4.0. The article aims to analyze the level of technological investment in Alagoas from the 4.0 industry perspective. Specifically, aims to identify the profile of the industrial structure, analyze the composition of technological investments, the use of 4.0 industry technologies and the technologies that industry intends to invest in the coming years. It aims to answer the following research question: what are the limits and impacts of technological investment from the 4.0 industry perspective? The study is quali-quantitative, being descriptive as to the objectives. To this end, it applied a survey to a sample of 150 industries, configuring a margin of error of 7.5% and a 95% confidence interval.  It is possible to measure as a result that the industry has a reduced level of investment in enabling technologies 4.0, but with a forecast of higher levels in the coming years.
