New progress to add value and quality to our partners Elementis | Performance Specialties (Coatings, Energy & Talc)

We are proud our NiSAT technology is being produced in China. This strategic move significantly reduces transportation distances within Asia, resulting in a more efficient and eco-friendly supply chain. By localizing production, we actively reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transport, aligning with our sustainability goals across North America, Europe, and Asia. This step not only enhances our operational efficiency but also strengthens local partnerships. At Elementis, we are setting a new industry standard for sustainability, demonstrating that business growth can coexist with environmental responsibility.  We remain committed to our journey towards a greener future, delivering sustainable products and caring for our planet.    https://lnkd.in/dsJiC962 #AddingFuture #ElementisSustainability #EcoFriendlyProduction #GlobalPartnerships 

#EITManufacturing is proud to announce the launch of its national-level programme in Serbia, implemented in collaboration with the Serbian Association of Regional Development Agencies (SARRA) and REDASP Sumadija and Pomoravlje. This initiative is designed to mobilise and interlink manufacturing stakeholders across Serbia, fostering cooperation between national and regional actors and EIT Manufacturing to create #inclusive, #digital, and #green #manufacturing ecosystems. https://lnkd.in/dBUftF_F

Building Global Innovation Hubs Innovation hubs bring together R&D institutions, venture capital, incubators and start-ups in one locale. Sounds easy, but how do you do it? How do you bring public- and private-sector leaders together, build on existing industrial strengths, target investments, engage the local community and launch an equitable innovation ecosystem from scratch? "You can't just copy and paste from Silicon Valley and bring it to Qatar, Africa and Southeast Asia" - Fred Swaniker "Conversations are around crowd financing opportunities to match the talent in Africa... Africa’s youth hold immense, untapped talent. Timbuktoo is committed to creating an ecosystem that nurtures talent &provides mechanisms to de-risk investments. Our goal? To fuel a panAfrican startups revolution, creating opps that help eradicate poverty" - Ahunna Eziakonwa "We need to radically change the way we think about climate.

With its intended focus on advancing and expanding manufacturing-led industrialization, the South African SEZ program can be a key instrument for economic development and have a significant impact on the future economic landscape of the nation. Despite the advantages of manufacturing, there is a growing global awareness of the negative environmental effects of traditional manufacturing methods. This article talks about the Circular Economy as an emerging construct for renewed practices that aim to promote low-carbon and sustainable manufacturing solutions. #ORTamboSEZ #SEZCircularEconomy

Competitiveness is the heart of Europe! 🎯 💡 Europe's future is built on industry. It guarantees prosperity and innovation for generations to come. What we need are strong instruments to shape the change for the future.  🖊️ That is why, in February, I signed the Antwerp Declaration on behalf of Evonik together with more than 70 other industry leaders. We are convinced that the successful implementation of the green transition requires an EU industry based on a European Industrial Deal, as outlined in the Antwerp Declaration.  ❓ What do you think? What is needed to put competitiveness back on the European agenda? Let me know in the comments.    #Evonik #AntwerpDeclaration #EUindustry #IndustrialDeal #FollowUsBeyond Cefic
