What happens when a long-time project partner (Rosanna Fornasiero, from CNR, Italy) and a former INESC TEC'S researcher (Ana Barros - now leading Impact Hub Porto) come together for a discussion? This CSI session explores the intersection of Supply Chain Management and impact-driven innovation. By reconnecting with familiar faces, we aim to uncover fresh pathways for collaboration, bridge research with entrepreneurship, and identify new opportunities for joint projects with measurable social and economic value.
