Industry 4.0 is transforming manufacturing — and training must keep pace. We explore the challenges of designing pedagogical materials for industrial operators: from knowledge gaps and time constraints, to language barriers and resistance to new technologies.
IoT is reshaping composite manufacturing — but are engineers ready? We look at new training materials designed to bridge the gap between telecommunications and mechanical engineering students, using real-world industrial applications as the learning context.
Gap analysis is a powerful tool for industrial transition. We examine what it reveals about operators’ skill needs as manufacturers move from machine automation to connected, data-driven systems — and why training design must follow.
On 15 May, 2025, a co-creation session brought together representatives from Savonia, MUE, MGEP, ESTIA and Zabala to collaboratively explore a Horizon Europe call focused on circular business models in the textile industry. The session began with a warm-up exchange aimed at presenting the research teams and their respective approaches, followed by a joint working session to integrate knowledge and develop concrete ideas. Although the exercise did not result in a project proposal, it fostered
From 23–27 February, MUE students participated in the EU4Dual Winter School at Savonia University of Applied Sciences in Finland, together with ESTIA students and staff. Working in international teams, participants addressed real-life challenges proposed by local experience service companies and progressed through the innovation process from problem identification to concept development. The programme combined workshops, company visits, and expert coaching with activities focused on teamwork, sustainability, and self-leadership, while also discovering Kuopio and Finnish winter
L'article examine le rôle macroéconomique des institutions dans l'encouragement des jeunes entreprises de logistique dans le secteur du transport et de l'entreposage. Il suppose que les start-ups réussissent mieux dans les pays dotés de systèmes institutionnels de haute qualité. À l'aide d'une analyse comparative et de modèles économétriques, l'étude compare des données statistiques des États membres de l'UE, en intégrant des indices tels que l'Indicateur mondial de gouvernance et l'Indice de développement humain pour démontrer le rôle crucial des institutions dans la promotion d'entreprises logistiques prospères.
