A special milestone for R3-MYDAS at Professionals of the Future III!

On 20 October, R3-MYDAS celebrated its Final Event as part of Professionals of the Future III, organised by the European Federation for Welding, Joining and Cutting (EWF) in Lisbon.

It was a valuable opportunity to share our work with a wider audience and contribute to discussions on how remanufacturing, circularity and advanced technologies can help shape a more sustainable and competitive manufacturing industry.

Our participation extended across two key moments of the programme:

Roundtable 2 - Remanufacturing & Industrial Transformation
During the morning, R3-MYDAS was closely connected to this interactive session, where participants explored the challenges of industrial transformation and the strategic choices involved in making manufacturing more circular, resilient and competitive.

Themes such as AI, resource efficiency, traceability and sustainability were particularly relevant to the work we have been developing throughout the project.

Afternoon Session - People at the Centre of Industrial Transformation
The afternoon provided an opportunity to look back at the R3-MYDAS journey, sharing the work developed throughout the project, its progress over the years and its contribution to advancing remanufacturing and circular industrial practices.

As the project approaches its conclusion, this was a particularly meaningful moment to reflect on what has been achieved and bring the experience gained throughout R3-MYDAS into a wider discussion on the future of manufacturing.

A special thank you to Thanasis Poulakidas from Netcompany-Intrasoft for presenting R3-MYDAS and its journey, and for contributing to the Experts Panel, where the discussion broadened to the role of technology, circularity and people in industrial transformation.

Taking part in Professionals of the Future III was an important milestone in the final stage of R3-MYDAS, giving us the opportunity to share our experience, exchange perspectives and highlight the project's contribution to a more circular and sustainable industrial future.

Thank you to European Federation for Welding, Joining and Cutting (EWF) for organising and hosting the event, to all the participants who joined the discussions, and to our project partners for their continued commitment and collaboration.
