САЖЕТАК / ABSTRACT:

The main goal of this research is to assess the attitudes of entrepreneurs in Serbia regarding the application of Industry 4.0 principles within their businesses. This will be achieved through the following specific objectives: to explore entrepreneurs’ understanding of the Industry 4.0 concept, to evaluate the extent to which entrepreneurs perceive the implementation of Industry 4.0 elements in their companies, to analyze the obstacles and challenges faced by businesses in the implementation of Industry 4.0, and to investigate entrepreneurs’ expectations concerning the future impact of Industry 4.0 on their operations. According to the results, the majority of respondents have heard of Industry 4.0 but have not yet implemented it. Respondents see potential for implementation, express a desire, and show interest in doing so. The reason for introducing Industry 4.0 is to facilitate company management and offer a more modern approach to data.
