4. Conclusion Enhanced productivity and efficiency in steel industry through smartization in steel-making process, e.g. AI, Big Data, IoT, etc, will allow to reduce production costs, affecting the entire steel value chain positively Steel intensity is forecasted to decline, but the growth rate of global steel demand will moderate significantly over the next twenty years - Steel demand for construction and shipbuilding will grow gradually - Steel demand on automotive will not change significantly due to the spread of vehicle sharing and autonomous deriving, despite the rising demand for automobiles in emerging countries Global steel demand will grow by about 1% each year from 1,501 Mt in 15 to 1,857 Mt in 35 To thrive in challenging environment, steel industry must seize the opportunities for new business and demand offered by smart technologies 22/22
