Topics will include the European Union’s strategy towards decarbonising Europe’s industry and the ambition to develop a carbon-neutral continent in the coming decades. The alternative solutions that will be presented and discussed in IBM’s interactive format are expected to be hydrogen, hybrid and electric engines.
Petros Michelidakis (Director, boot Düsseldorf) says: “We are very proud to host this important networking platform which is successfully taking place every year during boot Düsseldorf. Recognising new trends and developments at an early stage will help the industry to understand and effectively use innovations for a sustainable development.”
