SOLITA – Succeeding with AI in circular economy & material efficiency

More information

Circular economy refers to a production and consumption framework that mainly aims to keep products and materials in circulation either as a product or, when that can no longer be used, as components or raw materials. The global utilisation and success of this framework supports greatly in tackling global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution.

In this seminar we explore how artificial intelligence and machine learning can boost the circular economy journey of different organisations and how these technologies support building truly scalable solutions to nowadays problems and opportunities.

AI has attracted significant buzz and in the talks we cut through the jargons and present how AI can help businesses with a focus on circular economy. AI is known to provide significant improvements in at least three main areas: product design, operations, and infrastructure optimisation.

Talks cover multiple facets of AI powered circular economy including talks from regulatory information providers, solution providers, and equipment manufacturers. All the talks are highly relevant to a wide variety of industries as they cover themes such as material efficiency, asset utilisation, production & industrial process automation, and sustainability.
