In today's episode of the Digital Supply Chain podcast, I talked nanomaterials and packaging with Federico Trotta, Co-Founder and CEO of Metalchemy. As we unpacked the potential of this nascent industry, we discovered how Metalchemy is pioneering solutions that could revolutionise sustainability in supply chains and beyond.

Our conversation took a deep dive into Metalchemy's groundbreaking antimicrobial technology – a beacon of hope for industries grappling with stringent preservative regulations. It's not just about prolonging shelf life anymore; it's about reinventing preservation with an eco-conscious mindset.

We also touched upon Metalchemy's aspiration to lead the global nanomaterial market, transitioning from academia to tangible, societal benefits. Their proactive commercial partnerships aim to catapult nanotechnology from the lab to the frontline, making a measurable impact.

Towards the end of the episode we discussed biomaterials. In a world drowning in plastic, bioplastics offer a glimmer of hope. Federico illuminated the challenges and advancements in making bioplastics a viable contender to their synthetic counterparts, both in functionality and cost-effectiveness.

The episode concluded with insights into the integration of AI in enhancing the efficiency of experimental processes, a synergy of software and hardware that could potentially accelerate innovation.

Tune in to this episode for a journey through the microscopic world with macro implications, and be part of the conversation steering us towards a greener future.
