UNI BERGAMO @ EFFRA WG Productivity online meeting 11 June 2024

The health crisis has highlighted the weaknesses in our society, revealing the limitations of our production models and the capacity of both the country and businesses to respond systematically to unexpected situations. Production systems and supply chains need to become more resilient to handle:

• At “macro” level, the unpredictable and rapidly changing social, technological, economic, and environmental challenges. They must also be adaptable to shifting market demands.
• At “micro” level, the differences in quality and composition in raw materials, so that process parameters must be optimized for the different types of input to the manufacturing process

Design an open and inclusive productive system by promoting:

• collaborative and interconnected models,
• cross-disciplinary and open research infrastructures,
• access to new technologies towards a society 5.0,
• and the innovation of processes, products, and services, to support regional intelligence and human capital.
