The EU and Croatia are in the phase of important strategic determinations and realization of the program for reconstruction and recovery. In this light, the acquisition and application of new technologies have an important role. The creation of a new economy and market prosperity is only possible through quick and high-quality adaptations of new platforms and paradigms.
 

Economic growth so far has been related to the consumption of natural resources as if they were unlimited. The consequence of this is the current crisis of natural (primary) resources (sources) with the threat of a shortage of raw materials and increasing prices. Today, more and more societies/countries and economists are turning to other economic models, according to which it is possible to create without destroying the environment. There is a growing need for a transition to a green (sustainable) economy through advanced resource management, the use of economic instruments that favor environmental protection, supporting innovative projects, implementing a more effective energy, water and waste management policy and investing efforts in the development of sustainable consumption and production. Such thematic activities represent the aspiration of the 46^th MIPRO 2023 convention in accordance with the slogan in the title.
 

Get involved in the presentation of scientific, technological and innovative production solutions towards a Smart and Green Present and Future.
