En 2024, JEC World élabore à nouveau un programme de conférences inspirant, offrant aux participants l’occasion d’explorer les principaux défis et les tendances clés qui font l’avenir de l’industrie des composites.
Conçu par des experts, ce programme encourage les décideurs et les ingénieurs de toute la chaîne de valeur à partager leurs idées, que ce soit pour identifier des marchés émergents, de nouveaux matériaux, produits ou processus. Les présentations et les tables rondes couvriront des thèmes essentiels, allant de l’allègement des pièces et des structures à l’exploration de l’hydrogène et des avions du futur, en passant par les innovations en matière de matériaux, de recyclage et la promotion d’une économie circulaire.
Conférences Sustainability
En 2024, le développement durable est toujours un facteur clef de croissance dans l’industrie des composites. De
nombreux secteurs d’applications répondent à leurs ambitions durables grâce au recyclage, à l’allègement, à la
digitalisation ou à l’utilisation de matériaux naturelles.
