JEC World, the industry Think Tank

During the first JEC Summit Building & Infrastructure on March 4th, as well as during the three days of the show, public authorities, industry leaders and visionaries contributed to make JEC World the composites industry Think Tank, where sustainability and circular economy principles were raised by all participants.

From representatives of NEOM’s ‘land of the future’ to the European Commission policy officer who presented “The EU Green Deal 2050”, from the aeronautics industry’s decarbonisation roadmap presented by Airbus and Safran, to the International Olympic Committee’s call for partners to help the sports industry achieve its sustainable objectives, and the final highlight View From the Top, where Peter Huntsman, CEO of Huntsman Corporation, shared his vision on composites industry strategy. At JEC World, the converging efforts of all stakeholders, heading towards a sustainable future, created a global statement and a source of inspiration.

Three Country on Stage conferences gave attendees the opportunity to get to know the characteristics, trends and strategies of the composites’ ecosystems in Italy, Belgium, and France. Many other countries also participated in the event: Foreign Ministers, French Ministerial Delegates, Ambassadors and official representatives from 16 countries visited the show as part of official delegation tours. Among them: Austria, Canada, Czech Republic, Germany, India, Japan, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Taiwan, Türkiye, and the United States.
