Covid-19 vaccines: the pharmaceutical industry’s marathon

With the first vaccines now available as a result of international research carried out in record time, extensive vaccination campaigns have been launched in several countries. Manufacturers in the sector have shown great agility in this race against time. Pharmaceutical companies have had to reconcile speed with safety and compliance requirements across the whole vaccine manufacturing chain. At all stages of this exceptional process, VINCI Energies business units have contributed their respective areas of expertise by adapting to the specific characteristics of vaccine production.

Energy, safety, connectivity, processes – Airport performance is really taking off

The air transport sector is moving in the right direction: with more than five billion passengers and over 1,000 billion dollars in sales, airlines are set for spectacular growth in 2025. From optimised baggage handling systems to sustainability in fire protection systems, and innovations such as digital control towers, site electrification and energy self-consumption, the various VINCI Energies brands and business units involved are working constantly to improve performance in airports across the world.

Industry inventing its own robotic future

Fierce competition, the pursuit of productivity, relocation policies, a shortage of manpower: these are just some of the pressures on an industry searching for solutions to kick-start a new growth cycle and make plans for long-term recovery. One of these potential solutions is robotic automation. Having long been a pipe dream, it is now a rapidly expanding reality.  

Maritime transport on course for net zero

With a carbon footprint that accounts for 3% of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions, maritime transport is as polluting as air transport or the whole of Germany. However, cargo transport – 80% of which is by sea – still outperforms every other transportation system. The decarbonisation of shipping is therefore crucial. The UN, EU, national governments and other key players in the sector (shipowners, shippers, ports, etc.) are working together to accelerate maritime transport’s environmental transition.

The circular economy at the heart of environmental transition

With society under pressure from the climate crisis and the urgent need for energy transition, businesses are being asked to radically overhaul their design and production models. This major transformation includes massive adoption of techniques and materials that use fewer natural resources; systematic reuse and recycling of tools and materials; and widespread promotion of short loops.
