🆕 🆕 🆕 🆕 ↪ This Spring, the AMULET H2020 project in collaboration with the AMULET ambassadors, hosted a workshop in Barcelona to gain an insight into experts’ visions for the future of advanced materials. ↪Roundtables of experts from the AMULET project and its ambassadors pooled their knowledge and expertise together to create exciting futures based on real industry foresights, results from innovative projects, and some storytelling, imagination and desires. ↪Workshop participants investigated the specifics of future advanced materials — imagining their appearance, composition, power sources, drivers, and the prevailing policies and societal perceptions surrounding transport and mobility. ↪The objective was to craft a scenario that was not only desirable but also feasible, encapsulating both ambition and achievability. ↪We invite you to read a very interesting article summarising the AMULET Liaison Office workshop in Barcelona prepared by consortium partner Bax: https://lnkd.in/dRkjdwcf #INNOSUP #EISMEA #ECCP #Cluster_EU POLYMERIS | Bydgoszcz Industrial Cluster Tool Valley | Bax | FundingBox | Jozef Stefan Institute | Clust-ER Meccatronica e Motoristica | Autoklastr | Clúster de Materials Avançats de Catalunya | Technische Universität Chemnitz | Flanders Make | Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) | IMAST scarl | Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Pécs-Baranya |

Another local event for Defankle Innovation yesterday at the ScotlandIS cluster conference. This time on a panel discussing #Sustainable #Innovation, specifically around product design (although loads of AI chat). Lots of stimulating discussions fuelled by morning session talks from Mike Robinson and Dieter Helm. The conversation was sobering with hints of hopeful optimism. Key takeaways: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧The U.K., and in particular Scotland, are doing lots of exciting things to improve the sustainability of technology. Let’s tell these stories more! ⏰💚The very best time to think about sustainability is before you start projects - right at the very beginning (as well as throughout). 💪Understanding the ‘problems’ around sustainability (and, actually, any aspect of innovation) is an opportunity for learning, improved innovation and better business. Welcome problem exploration, don’t brush if off or rush through it too quickly. Sit with it, model it, and act on it. 🌎🌳🤷🏻♀️Sustainability (the 17 United Nations #SDGs) goes beyond carbon. A singular focus consolidates efforts but is also be storing up issues for the future. If you would like to explore understanding the opportunities in your organisation around better innovation, let's have a chat.

👋Your working environment matters. So, of course we’re happy about a proposal that promotes sustainability and a vibrant economy by transforming 90 hectares of land in Grenchen over the next decades. And Ekko-Meister sits right in the middle of it😉 🌿The master plan includes a Green Loop for relaxation and climate regulation, slow traffic zones, and Mobility Hubs for shared parking solutions. This promising project aims to attract more high-tech industries like precision engineering, automation, and robotics, creating a hub of innovation and industry 4.0. Which means even more skilled workers for our area🤗 Although the plan is not yet set in stone, we’re thrilled about the opportunities this transformation could bring ✨ Sounds like we might be in the right place at the right time… What do you think?
