Increaseing automation level in manufacturing and value chains is extremely important. If possible, advanced robotics and AI for manufacturing could be referred to in the text

Circularity is going to be a real channeng for the manufacturing companies and a lot of R&D is needed. Also, changes in manufacturing are crucial in order to realise circularity. The design for circularity is very important and could be even more emphasized

If number of topics should be reduced, this could be combined to the circularity topic

In this topic, it would be important to emphasize organisatorial and work community approaches i.e. not to concentrate too much on individuals but how the organisation / work procedures / responsabilites change due to e.g. increased automation (incl. AI), remote work etc. Human centre industiral metaverse concept could be mentioned

Inportant topic but how much is this a reaseracha and development issue? Maybe more for EIT Manufacturing?

The biointelligent approach to manufacturing is important but in the current text it is too narrow focusing on actuators and sensors etc.
