Great to attend and present at the Innovate UK Materials Manufacturing Showcase on Wednesday. The support, funding, and expert input provided by Innovate UK are truly making a difference in driving innovation forward.
The robotics on display were incredible, and the new, greener materials being developed are a testament to the exciting progress in sustainable manufacturing.
In our session about creating resource efficient and sustainable supply chains—with Tim Lawrence, David Bott and Sophie Walker, a key point coming out from the discussion was the need for greater collaboration across business partners. We talked about the importance of sharing data and ideas and the need for businesses to engage with emerging innovators early in the development process, rather than waiting until technologies are fully developed and proven. There’s huge potential for win-win partnerships that can accelerate progress and bring innovative solutions to market faster.
Looking forward to continuing these conversations—let’s build a more sustainable, resource-efficient future together.
