Interested in identifying technological innovations to solve societal challenges? On November 28th, the Eindhoven University of Technology campus is home to the Festival of Disruption 2024, which aims to make problems understandable and create sustainable, impactful solutions. This year, Eindhoven Engine is focusing on four themes: - Bridging the gap for the 2.5 million people in the #Netherlands who lack basic skills. - Tackling the #energy transition and ensuring access to electricity for everyone. - Rethinking #healthcare with an emphasis on prevention and vitality. - Innovating circularity and reducing #CO2 emissions in industry.

Welcome to #LeMesurierExperts | Leading the Charge Join us in this series of publications where we unveil our mission through the voices of the experts driving our project. These passionate professionals are crucial in assessing the effectiveness of the 2Zero Partnership in achieving #sustainableroadtransport 🍃 🚗 Today, we are excited to introduce Joerg Dubbert, Senior Consultant at VDI/VDE Innovation + Technik GmbH. "As a road transport engineer, I am especially excited to look into the impact and effectiveness of European research and innovation projects which target carbon neutrality in my own professional domain. I would like to learn what impact the current R&I projects have on the advancement of carbon neutrality, the reduction of air pollution and the improvement of health in society. It is also interesting to see the prospects for the further implementation of circular economy and for strengthening the competitiveness of European stakeholders and reaching technology leadership in this field", says Jörg Dubbert. VDI/VDE-IT analyses, supports and organises major innovation activities in the European mobility sector, with a strong focus on achieving carbon-neutral road transport to protect our climate. They facilitate and support co-operation, know-how building as well as exchange of experience and information. As a partner of the #LeMesurier consortium, VDI/VDE-IT leads WP3, which assesses the interactions, impacts, and effectiveness of the 2Zero Partnership. This includes evaluating crucial aspects such as carbon neutrality, air pollution or circular economy in alignment with the 2Zero SRIA Generic Objectives. Stay tuned as we continue to highlight the experts propelling us toward a sustainable future!

We are excited to announce the publication of our first #SustainabilityReport and our #NetZeroRoadmap, detailing our commitment to achieving a net zero footprint within our own operations by 2026 🍃 In 2023, our total annual greenhouse gas emissions were approximately 69’860 tons of CO2-eq, with the majority originating from our value chain. Emissions from our direct operations and purchased energy were about 1'239 tCO2-eq. Over the next three years, we will focus on reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which are directly under our control. As part of our journey to net zero by 2026, we are also striving to reduce Scope 3 emissions through pilot project such as the new headquarters at Zurich Airport's "Circle" (primarily accessible by public transport) and supplier engagement to reduce carbon emissions within the Lithography division. André Wall, CEO Beyond Gravity says: “We aim to harness the power of space technology to address humanity's most pressing challenges. We strive to protect the Earth's environment, promote international cooperation and enable sustainable development to ensure a harmonious and secure future for all." 🌍 Check out our reports: 📄 Sustainability Report https://lnkd.in/eyTsQ-y7 📊 Roadmap to Net Zero https://lnkd.in/eTce2ms6 More about #ESG at Beyond Gravity: https://lnkd.in/eKv4aNfk

Powering the Future: 10 Innovations Revolutionizing #Energy and #Sustainability 🔋 In our quest for a cleaner, greener planet, #innovation is leading the charge. From solar-powered trains to microscopic power plants, the energy and sustainability sector is witnessing groundbreaking advancements that are reshaping our world. These innovations aren't just ideas — they're real solutions being implemented today, paving the way for a more sustainable tomorrow. They demonstrate the incredible potential of human ingenuity in addressing our most pressing environmental challenges. 💡🌍

To make life multiplanetary, we need more than reusable rockets🚀. We need the ability to recycle everything, from air and water to waste. Without that, sustainable colonies on other planets are impossible. That's where innovation comes in. Imagine turning waste into the very fuel and resources that power life on Mars. BNPETRO has already cracked the code on Earth by converting urban solid waste into synthetic fuels and petrochemicals. The same technology that transforms waste into hydrogen-rich fuel and gas here could be the key to fueling rockets and sustaining life on Mars. We are building the Next Generation of Sustainable Space Fuels. Join us in transforming the aerospace sector with technological and sustainable innovations!

Life serving innovation will require the use of nature-based solutions to sustain the biosystems on which all enterprise and all life depends. How can we use "nature tech" to map, measure and transition? https://lnkd.in/egTKfyQp
