On May 13 in Parma, representatives from One Ocean Foundation will take part in the 13th edition of SPS Italy – Smart Production Solutions, one of the most significant events in the Industry 4.0 and smart automation landscape. The Foundation’s contributions will highlight the inseparable link between industrial development and the protection of marine ecosystems, even for companies that do not operate directly near the sea but unknowingly have an indirect impact on it.

Jan Pachner, Secretary General of One Ocean Foundation, will deliver a speech exploring how the future of industry depends on environmental health—including the ocean. Ambra Cozzi, Blue Economy Project Manager, and Gaia Paretti, Educational Projects Coordinator, will delve into the significant impacts that even inland industrial activities can generate. Innovation, efficiency, and circularity are key to driving the transition toward a regenerative economy and safeguarding our natural capital.

The invitation to SPS Italy reflects the Foundation’s commitment to fostering constructive dialogue between industry and sustainability, demonstrating how technology and best practices can converge to create low-impact production models.
