“Manufacturing needs to be efficient but also respect
the planetary boundaries”.
In this
episode, Assistant Professor Mélanie Despeisse takes us to a journey starting
from the quintessence of manufacturing – using valuable resources to produce
value for society – to sustainable manufacturing and related concepts:
eco-efficiency vs eco-effectiveness, and circular economy, just to name a few. Mélanie also tells us her journey as
world-citizen researcher starting in UK, Belgium, Japan and then Sweden. Mélanie
continues the chat with examples of digitalization applied for mass
customization, additive manufacturing and digitalization opportunities for
