Behind the historic charm of many New England homes is an often-overlooked problem: their walls contain little to no insulation. That can make houses hotter in summer and chillier in winter. In some older homes, as much as 25 percent of heating energy is lost through...
Battery manufacturing has always reminded me of cake baking. In both cases, you take some materials, mix them together, spread the mixture, and put it in an oven. Just like in cake baking, two people can follow the same recipe and produce completely different results....
As technology moves faster, operations get more complex. Customers expect more. Systems change. Automation expands. Leaders are being asked to build new capability without slowing the business down. That is why reskilling gets so much attention. Companies invest in...
Boston University researchers are using augmented reality, AI, and custom insulation panels to help retrofit older homes faster and more accurately, with the potential to reduce heating and cooling energy loss through walls by up to 85%.
Connected digital ecosystems are enabling battery manufacturers to integrate design, engineering, production, and supply chain data, helping accelerate gigafactory ramp-ups, improve quality, reduce waste, and scale innovation more efficiently across the battery lifecycle.
Reskilling only delivers measurable business value when training is directly tied to operational goals, supported by process changes, and reinforced through day-to-day execution.
