What are the key drivers of R&D innovations after a pandemic?

It has become more prominent than ever for R&D success to recognize

Global trends

• the shortage of resources
• technical breakthroughs
• age of new generations

Importance of new innovations to

• improve productivity
• reduce waste
• navigate uncertainty

Integrating digital technologies in R&D processes to

• accelerate the effectiveness of research
• increase efficiency
• open up new innovation opportunities

Digitalization gives research and development teams additional opportunities to

• implement their creative ideas
• collaborate intensively around the world

Effective and efficient R&D is predominant for innovation.

Research and development (R&D) departments, developing new products and services, or improving existing ones, are bringing healthier, more ethical, and environmentally sustainable experiences to their customers.

The circular economy has become a prominent guiding vision for businesses to build a future where production and consumption patterns allow humans to live well within the limits of the planet. Still,

there is uncertainty about the pathways to achieving such an appealing future, and the question is

How circular economy aspires to sustainable R&D?

In order to bring truly comprehensive sustainable R&D, it is required an approach with a broad horizon, spanning multiple products and sectors to

• Explore existing R&D innovation best practices
• Discover new, innovative, forward-looking strategies
• Leverage circular and sustainable initiatives
