On 11 December 2025, take part in a morning dedicated to responsible digital practices and the circular economy, organised by Pôle MecaTech and AdN. The workshop will help manufacturing companies address the environmental impact of digital technologies while identifying quick, concrete actions to reduce their costs, risks and carbon footprint.
Responsible Digital Workshop & Circular Economy
Why Take Part?
Digital technologies now account for an increasing share of companies’ environmental impact: energy-hungry equipment, supplier dependency, growing data volumes… For SMESmall and medium-sized enterprisess, integrating a circular approach into their digital use has become a strategic lever:
- reducing costs (servers, cloud, IT equipment)
- lowering the carbon footprintCarbon footprint is an indicator that aims to measure an activity’s impact on the environment, and more particularly the greenhouse gas emissions linked to this activity. through simple actions
- greater resilience to cyber risks, shortages or disruptions
- opportunities to optimise internal practices and extend equipment lifespan
This workshop offers a practical, jargon-free approach to understanding how digital technology, circularityCircularity describes the quantity of materials managed in a closed loop. and competitiveness are closely linked.
What You Will Learn
Throughout the morning, participants will be able to:
- explore the key issues of responsible digital use and the circular economyThe circular economy is a restorative and regenerative economy. By maintaining the value of the products, materials and resources in the economy through smart product design, repurposing and/or shared use of products, it reduces the extraction of natural resources by using resources already present in the economy. in an industrial context
- analyse the environmental impact of their digital practices
- carry out a personalised pre-diagnosis to identify priority actions
- exchange good practices with peers
- leave with concrete solutions to strengthen circularity within their company
