I'm glad to share today a new chapter published by my team (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/393258376_A_Digital_Training_T…) about the use of the I-Go tool to support SMEs in Brazil.
The work was done in the last 2 years with the support of bachelor engineering students from my institution, working together with selected SMEs. We highlight the power of the I-Go tool to create fast and tailored recommendations toward moving to a more circular production system in the SMEs that we have supported.
