The transition of the world to a new technological structure - Industry 4.0 and the new architecture of science create fundamentally new conditions for human development and human society. The key driver of industry 4.0 is digital technology, which is undergoing its second revolution. Innovative technologies, new information and communication technologies, new ciber-spaces, robots and artificial intelligence, virtual-human processes, the use of big data, cloud storage, and algorithms are key elements incorporated in our life, which will be transposed in smart factories, and smart cities. How can bioethics may help us shape responsible digital revolution?

The Industry 4.0, and the interaction human-technology is a new challenge for the entire globe requiring specific knowledge and skills to be able to develop a bio-ethics mapping in order to elaborate a risk-based methodology to guarantee wellbeing for our future generations.
