We are thrilled to share highlights from ECOFACT’s recent participation at Autodesk University 2024 in San Diego, held from October 15-17. Our project partner, One Team, proudly presented ECOFACT to an international audience at this renowned event, which draws top experts in digital transformation, sustainability, and innovation. This event served as stage to showcase how ECOFACT is advancing sustainable manufacturing practices through cutting-edge digital twin technology.
Autodesk University is one of the year’s most anticipated events for digital design and manufacturing. Known for gathering thought leaders and innovators from across the globe, the event focuses on the latest tools and technologies driving a more sustainable, efficient future. This year’s sessions featured in-depth discussions on automation, digital twins, data management, and much more—placing ECOFACT at the centre of conversations about industry transformation and sustainable manufacturing.
From One Team, Andrea Perego, Jacopo Chiappetti, Giovanni Coviello, and Riccardo Merizzi, shared their insights and expertise through interactive workshops and technical sessions. They highlighted the impact of ECOFACT’s digital twin technology alongside BuildON, another Horizon Europe project. Both projects showcase how digital innovation can optimise sustainability in factory and building environments. The event provided ECOFACT with a valuable opportunity to connect with global innovators, exchange ideas, and gain insights from leaders at the forefront of digital transformation.
Driving Sustainable Innovation with ECOFACT’s Digital Twin
At the heart of ECOFACT’s mission is its digital twin technology, which supports energy efficiency and operational resilience in manufacturing. This technology allows manufacturers to simulate and optimise production processes and monitor energy and resource consumption in real-time, aiding in smarter decision-making to reduce waste, improve energy use, and enhance overall sustainability. By modelling production lines and equipment as advanced 3D models fed with real-time Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) data, ECOFACT’s digital twin helps streamline operations and identify inefficiencies before they impact productivity or sustainability.
Following a successful experience at Autodesk University, ECOFACT has future opportunities to share its vision of sustainable transformation and connect with industry leaders across Europe. We invite you to stay updated on ECOFACT’s journey to revolutionise the manufacturing sector through sustainability-focused digital transformation.
