In deze aflevering van Z 7 op 7: De Europese staalsector heeft het zwaar. Ze lijdt onder hoge energieprijzen, een lage vraag en dumping van goedkoper staal uit China. Zes jaar geleden voerde de EU al importquota in, met daarbovenop een invoertarief van 25 procent. Die quota worden strenger. Want nu president Trump de Amerikaanse markt afschermt met invoertarieven, dreigt Europa nog meer een dumpplek te worden voor goedkoop staal. Een elektrische auto waarvan je vier keer meer materiaal kunt hergebruiken dan tot nu toe. Dat is de belofte van de futuristische Phoenix. Maar liefst 75 procent van de auto kan gerecycleerd worden. Dit onderzoeksproject van een team studenten van de TU Eindhoven is hét pronkstuk van Eurotech.En en optreden van Jensen Huang, de topman van het hipste en beroemdste bedrijf uit de techsector, NVIDIA.

In deze speciale bonusaflevering zetten we graag Europa in de kijker. We bekijken hoe Europa het in het verleden deed op technohlogievlak - bijvoorbeeld hoe we op veel vlakken voorlopers waren maar dan toch door andere spelers voorbijgestoken werden. We kijken ook naar de status van zaken vandaag. Er zijn meer Europese techspelers dan je op het eerste zicht zou denken. En uiteraard kijken we ook naar de toekomst: hoe kunnen we ervoor zorgen dat Europa competitief wordt tegenover de Amerikaanse en Chinese tegenspelers? Beluister nu onze EuroTech-aflevering en deel zeker ook jouw mening.

Security, security, security. You'd think by now that the process for security would be so automated and automatic we wouldn't be having these same discussions as to why designers are reluctant to design it in, or what applications really require it. Alas, here we are.To try, yet again, to understand why we still have the same discussions over and over, I spoke to Paul Chawla, the CEO of Eurotech. Eurotech likes to live on the Edge of the IoT, so they well understand the need for advanced security at the Edge, in the Cloud, at the endpoint. Hear what Paul had to say on this week's Embedded Executives podcast.

In the first episode of series 2 of the #beyondthenow IoT security podcast, David is joined by Marco Carrer, CTO of Eurotech, to examine the emergence of edge devices. They discuss what we mean by edge devices, the crucial role the edge is playing across all industries, and the challenges of edge device security. We also discuss the benefits of industry collaboration and how IoT security frameworks are bridging security knowledge gaps. · Introductions to Marco Carrer and Eurotech. [01:01] · What do we mean by the edge and edge devices. [03:20] · Why have edge devices been developed? What is driving compute closer to the data source? [4:13] · Edge devices reduce our reliance on the cloud but the application will decide how much computing power you need at the edge. [06:27] · Do edge devices still have a relationship with a data center? [07:44] · What kind of industries are adopting edge technologies? [10:24] · How the edge is enabling the merging of IT and OT in the Industrial IoT space and how this complicates security further. [12:15] · The PSA Certified 2021 Security Report found that a lack of expertise was a major barrier when implementing IoT security, with that in mind how do customers describe their IoT security requirements to a company like Eurotech? [14:48] · We're in a transition phase where early adopters are keen to implement IoT security, but many people are still holding back. [16:07] · The importance of industry collaboration to provide IoT security collaboration. [16:48] · How IoT security frameworks are helping Eurotech and their customers understand their security requirements. [17:39] · IoT is fragmented even beyond security with many different architectures, protocols, and deployment scenarios. [19:10] · IoT security needs to be embraced by the entire business, not just the engineering teams. [20:02] · We need collaboration from the entire ecosystem, even those who are traditionally seen as competitors. [21:24] · What do you think the IoT landscape will look like in 5 years?: The emergence of edge workload consolidation. [23:31] · How edge workload consolidation will increase IoT security adoption. [25:19] · What advice would you give listeners when it comes to IoT security? [26:40]

Key Talking Points: Build your pay plans to accomplish the goals you want You can not have a business-focused incentive plan. The individual and team must play a big role. Must be a win-win for both. If a shop doesn’t feel they can’t afford people, they aren’t charging enough. Find ways to afford your people The reward for their performance Incentivize the individual so they can earn what they want based on their contribution to the business Some employees are not worth what they want or need to earn. No problem moving on. Some pay plans allow a great income when milestones or goals are hit....
Nel corso di una conferenza stampa, svoltasi oggi all'Allianz Dome, il presidente Mario Ghiacci ha presentato l'innovativa collaborazione con Eurotech, azienda con sede in Friuli Venezia Giulia e quotata alla borsa di Milano, leader a livello internazionale nella produzione di computer embedded, sensori intelligenti e componenti hardware e software per Internet of Things (IoT). “Questa collaborazione - ha spiegato il presidente di Allianz Pallacanestro Trieste Mario Ghiacci - ci permette di essere il primo palazzetto d'Italia che applica soluzioni tecnologiche innovative e di precisione per gestire una delle fasi più critiche in tempi di Covid, ovvero l'ingresso nella struttura da parte del pubblico autorizzato. Eurotech è una azienda del Friuli Venezia Giulia, ma lavora in tutto il mondo e ha sviluppato progetti che ci rendono estremamente orgogliosi di questa collaborazione”. Agli ingressi dell'Allianz Dome, all'avvio del campionato di Serie A, verranno installati dei gate prodotti da Eurotech che assolveranno a numerose funzioni: conteranno le persone in entrata e in uscita, verificheranno se indossano correttamente la mascherina, permetteranno di segnalare se sarà necessario attendere prima di accedere, e soprattutto monitoreranno la temperatura corporea con grande precisione e molto velocemente in modo da evitare code. Tutte le informazioni saranno disponibili in tempo reale per poter governare eventuali assembramenti nella fase di afflusso del pubblico, e - se necessario - isolare immediatamente le persone che evidenzieranno una temperatura corporea oltre i 37.5 gradi centigradi. “I gate Eurotech - ha commentato ancora Mario Ghiacci - sono quanto di meglio ha da offrire il mercato per consentire il rispetto delle norme sulla sicurezza in ingresso alla struttura: stiamo lavorando con grande impegno affinché l'Allianz Dome possa accogliere il proprio pubblico in modo sicuro e confortevole nonostante le limitazioni imposte dalla pandemia, ed Eurotech, con la sua tecnologia, ha avuto un ruolo molto importante in questo processo”. Proprio in relazione alla delicata situazione della presenza dei tifosi durante gli eventi sportivi e alla garanzia di sicurezza che le società devono poter loro offrire quando si recano negli impianti come l'Allianz Dome, è intervenuta l'Assessore alla Cultura e Sport FVG Tiziana Gibelli: “La collaborazione fra Allianz Pallacanestro Trieste ed Eurotech – rileva l'Assessore – testimonia che nella nostra regione le prestigiose associazioni sportive come Allianz Pallacanestro Trieste non si sono arrese alle difficoltà e alle incertezze di questo periodo così difficile e, anzi, hanno lavorato per cercare di trovare delle soluzioni efficaci che permettano ai giocatori e allo staff di riprendere le attività in sicurezza. Tutto ciò è importante – conclude l'Assessore – anche per il pubblico e per tutti gli appassionati che con le precauzioni e le regole necessarie, possono nuovamente godere dal vivo delle grandi emozioni che lo sport e, in particolare, la pallacanestro sa dare.” “Con Allianz Pallacanestro Trieste c'è una collaborazione che viene da lontano” - ha commentato Giuseppe Surace, Chief Product and Marketing Officer del gruppo Eurotech - “in tempi pre-pandemici avevamo già discusso come rendere ancora più tecnologica la casa del basket triestino, attraverso tecnologia di nostra produzione, tecnologia che permettesse di rendere l'esperienza dello spettatore dentro l'Allianz Dome ancora più sicura e confortevole. Purtroppo, la pandemia è intervenuta a stravolgere il mondo che conosciamo ed a cambiarlo profondamente. Senza perderci d'animo abbiamo pensato assieme ad Allianz Pallacanestro Trieste come cercare di ripartire in sicurezza. La soluzione modulare che andremmo ad installare agli ingressi dell'Allianz Dome ad inizio stagione va esattamente in questa direzione. La modularità ci permetterà di preservare l'investimento anche nel momento in cui,

Our embedded industry is bursting with standards. One of the more popular ones, especially when discussing industrial specifications, is Industry 4.0. But, we’ve been stuck on 4.0 for quite some time. With that said, what’s next? Is it Industry 4.1? 5.0? Or something else? That’s the question I posed of someone in the know, Dusty Kramer, the recently appointed CEO of Eurotech in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Here we are, with the shimmering soulboy, Bowie '75 style and 'Young Americans', that louche blend of slow jams, dirty funk and smooth grooves. Bowie's 1975 album veered dramatically away from the trashglam-apocalypso of 1974's 'Diamond Dogs' and presaged the chilly Eurotech of 1976's 'Station To Station' with joyous verve and energy. 'Blue eyed soul', its emaciated creator later dismissed it as being, but we love it to bits and so does my guest this week, the PR main man Murray Chalmers. As a young pup in 1970s Dundee, Bowie lit up Murray's world, paving the way for a punk obsession that brought him to London and led to him today, being the PR for the likes of the Pet Shop Boys, Yoko Ono, Kate Bush, Robbie Williams, Suede and many more. Over two meetings (one in the slightly echoey surroundings of Murray's London HQ), we blether away about Bowie, Young Americans, meeting Bowie, Murray's beginnings in the London music industry of the late 70s and how one particular track from this album gets him. Every. Single. Time.. Enjoy and as ever, please do let me know what you think and spread this podcast like melting butter on internet toast. Ain't there one damn podcast that can make you…

Listen to Seth’s previous episodes (https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=%22seth+thorson%22) . Key Talking Points: Buying technicians tools is a recruiting and retention tool for your business. New technician program ideas: Catch them when they start school. Post-secondary student starts as a freshman. Buy a toolkit for them. Work for your shop and get your tuition paid if you stay for four years. Apprentice gets a toolkit. So when they are working for you they have access to tools. Apprentice set is smaller and mobile so as apprentice works with different technicians they have their set with them. Provide built-in tool boxes for every tech. Toolboxes are a big barrier (cost) All tool boxes are uniform. Tech has the key. The owner has a key. No toolbox envy. This is trending especially at higher end euro shops. Offer storage of techs current box while he uses your built in. Some techs will sell their box. Productivity gains when every toolbox is uniform. The shop provides all specialty tools, diagnostic tools and scopes. Tech owns a basic set of tools themselves Every Lexus dealer is creating built-in tool boxes.
