Maintenance in transitionKaren de Lathouder - CEO
In the next 30 years, industry will have to become completely climate neutral. A huge challenge that will require a lot, including efficiency, digitalization and circularity. These efforts should lead to future-proof industry with minimal safety risks and environmental impact, minimal use of raw materials and fuels, and all at an affordable, competitive price. This upheaval also affects labor demand, the deployment of technology and new development, the strategy and narrative to recruit qualified personnel, and the image of the manufacturing industry.
