The alliance brings together leading companies such as Roche, Nestlé, Schindler and Endress Hauser, which are funding the project with CHF 2.1 million over three years. The centrepiece is the Circle of Scholars, a network of six doctoral students who are researching topics such as artificial intelligence in production, sustainable manufacturing and global production networks together with industry partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
“With the Manufacturing Alliance, we are creating a platform that actively involves industry partners in research,” emphasises Prof. Dr Thomas Friedli (HSG). Prof. Dr Torbjörn Netland (ETH Zurich) adds: “Our doctoral students work on real problems from day one – this helps industry and promotes young talent.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/strong>HSG studies show that Swiss companies are increasingly relocating their production capacities back to Switzerland in order to benefit from innovation<\/span>, stability and high quality. The Manufacturing Alliance aims to support this trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>The Alliance invites companies of all sizes to participate. The partners benefit from practical solutions, scientific expertise and an exclusive industry network. Nestlé and Johnson & Johnson are already among the sponsors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
