« Life cycle thinking and new business models»: close to 40 researchers of Haut-de-France prepare the world of tomorrow!
Involved in the ecological transition, the Hauts-de-France region has committed itself more than 7 years ago in a large project of Life Cycle Thinking transversal integration by the actors of the region. It supports an active policy in favor of new development models, in particular by encouraging the implementation of eco-design approach and the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA).
The Hauts-de-France region relies on the [avniR] platform by cd2e to integrate the life cycle thinking with expertise and methodology within companies and researchers actors. As part of this policy and to promote and accelerate the transversal academic research on these subjects, a call for research project on life cycle thinking and new development models have been launched in October 2014.
Nineteen application files have been received and analyzed. Among them, eight have been selected, each contributing in a complementarity way to the regional research dynamic which the Haut-de-France region wants to set up.
