Abstract |
The Network of Excellence VISIONS follows three main overall objectives, which are closely interrelated:
Success in any kind of business requires swift knowledge of market and society needs as well as scientific and technological skills to respond to those needs. Skills and abilities need to be developed in the medium and long term, guided by visionary and innovative concept outlines of the future products. Though most significant technological innovations in the maritime field originated from Europe, European shipbuilding industry has lost a significant part of its market share over the last decades, mainly by aggressive competition and cheap labour. One of the concepts to counter for this situation is an integrated and systematic approach towards the development of innovative concept outlines for future products |
