In 2030 - technologies without borders
The acceleration and convergence of technologies are creating major opportunities for us to better serve our clients. We know that now is the time to prepare for the future, and are already anticipating how are businesses will evolve.
Are you resourceful?
As natural resources become increasingly scarce, waste will become a vital resource, provided it is recycled intelligently. Experts in sourcing from waste will fully comprehend this new value chain and will make sure that resources produced from waste are greater in number, more available, more accessible and of better quality.
Go where the urgent needs are
Climatic and geopolitical threats require new solutions that can be rolled out fast. In the event of civil or military emergencies, the role of an emergency team projection specialist will involve planning and coordinating remote responses in order to install the necessary self-contained site facilities and logistics bases.
Our urban centers need you
By 2030, the billions of city-dwellers will need to exploit the over-abundance of waste to avoid shortages of increasingly scarce energy. As the veritable bandmaster of this energy recovery, the circular ecology specialist will oversee flows across the virtuous cycle of the circular economy, from collection through to re-injection.
Channel your energy
Cutting-edge technologies such as Smart Grids harness and combine an array of energy sources spread across an area. Tasked with designing these intelligent networks, the micro-energy architect will match various and often fluctuating sources of renewable energy with the needs of self-producing energy consumers.
Industry is moving forward, and you can play a part
Industrial manufacturers are facing multiple changes including the energy transition and digital transformation, accelerating innovation, and a major thrust in regulations. As industrial process specialists, rescaling experts will advise customers on the adaptation of their production systems and tools, to keep them proactive and efficient.
