FREE ONLINE EVENTS FOR MANUFACTURING COMPANIES 17th – 20th MAY 2021

A WEEK FULL OF USEFUL INFORMATION. COME AND DISCUSS WITH EXPERTS!

Industries are facing green transition, which requires new solutions, know-how and collaboration. No longer, companies can postpone sustainable development. The pressure comes from policies, funding, labour markets and end customers influencing the whole supply chain. Ecological aspects are necessary in all business activities: purchasing material and components, product development, production, logistics and marketing. Investing in ecological development creates competitiveness today and in the future.

ECOLABNET organises the series of sharp events for manufacturing companies in critical aspects of ecological innovations.

In 1,5 hours, you will gain new knowledge, business examples and connections with great experts.
