About

This proposal outlines the creation of a non-profit foundation that will serve as an innovation and R&D hub, dedicated to exploring ways to utilize textile waste within Portuguese Heritage Arts & Crafts. The Foundation will combine cutting-edge sustainability practices with traditional craftsmanship to create a model for circular cultural production.

Stage

  • Early idea

Topic

  • Data technologies | Data ecosystems for the realisation of circular value creation exploiting the full potential of digitalisation – e.g., harnessing existing, purpose-built platform solutions.
  • Data technologies | Interoperability of CVC-relevant data ecosystems, quality assurance and traceability across systems
  • Data technologies | (AI based) process and system control technologies
  • Data technologies | Assistance and Expert systems
  • Data technologies | Simulation models and predictive analytics to assess the scalability of circular processes across industries
  • Data technologies | Algorithm that shows the (positive) impact of a Circular Economy process or Circular Economy product
  • Enabling technologies | Manufacturing and machine learning, e.g., to increase the flexibility of industrial processes, modular approaches, reduce use of materials, quality assurance and certification of products)
  • Enabling technologies | Industry 4.0 technologies (IoT, big data analytics) for monitoring and managing circular value chains
  • Enabling technologies | Life cycle assessment / Product life cycle management – e.g., Digital Twin / Digital Product Passport
  • Enabling technologies | Tools and solutions addressing challenges emerging from product focused regulations (such as the ESPR)
