Take HOME Messages
For SOCIETY
- Can we join forces with the digitalisation?
- Smartphone and internet changed the way we act immensely.
- 35% of in-store purchases are influenced by media, for example because people orientate online, or because they buy online. So how are packaging lining up with this?
- Means of production & changes in society need to come together.
For INDUSTRY
- Clearer, non-interpretable, communication of the benefits of active and intelligent features
- Any print is space on packaging, which costs money, so it can be a barrier to include enough info on the A&I characteristics.
For RESEARCH
- Dissemination of scientific results is important, but communication of the results outside the scientific network is maybe even more important to create awareness and understanding.
- It is important to integrate trends in research activities; only 30% of research will be successful.
