VIU-MOST Innovation of Enterprises and Green Technologies
01 September 2014

most2_2014The Ministry of Science and Technology plays an important role in China’s economic growth strategies by promoting many programmes for the support of innovation and new high technologies. Progress in this direction aim at improving people's living standards and creating a sound ecological environment in the country.
The objective of the forthcoming training on “Innovation of Enterprises and Green Technologies” is to underline that when companies invest in innovative technologies for the protection of the environment they can gain advantages from the economic point of view as well as contribute to the social improvement of the whole country, thus following the threefold approach that characterizes sustainable development.

The delegation that will visit Italy between September 6 and 17 is composed by 27 participants selected among provincial science and technology departments and centers for technological innovation. A few introductory lectures focused on the policies for the promotion of clean technologies in Italy and the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), as a tool available to companies that are keen to understand where they can act along the production cycle to reduce their burden on the environment. Most of all, the participants were able to see in first person many companies operating in very different sectors (energy production, mechanics, furniture, paper, boilers and steam engines, food), which share the objective of reducing the impact of the production processes or final products on the environment through the deployment or development of new innovative technologies.

Further details can be found in the training course agenda.
