NRW Efficiency Award presented/ Markus Wild on the jury

On January 25, the Efficiency Award was presented in the Octagon at Zollverein on a grand scale in front of about 200 guests. As a member of this year's jury, Markus Wild was also delighted with the high quality of the 30 entries and, of course, the awards. Favorite: Bäcker Schüren showed how consistently one can set one thing after another to "sustainability" in his medium-sized business, once one gets started. On the sidelines of the awards ceremony, people were already thinking ahead and discussing how to get more industrial designers on the sustainability track and involve them in resource-efficient consulting.
