The event was moderated by Jean-Benoit Bel from the European network ACR+ and counted with the participation of Daniel Marco, Director General of Digital Economy in the Government of Catalonia; Maria Vidal, Head of Promotion of Valorisation in the Catalan Waste Agency; and Daniel L\u00f3pez, Director of Digital Innovation Management Office at the i2CAT Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>This initiative aims to develop a project that shows the feasibility of implementing a system able to trace and locate the electrical and electronic devices sold in Catalonia from the moment they are manufactured. This traceability system would include accurate information on the components defined as strategic and contained by certain devices.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel L\u00f3pez explained the main challenges of this project, which is expected to be implemented at the beginning of 2021. He argued that the involvement of manufacturers and citizens is key to the success of the initiative and gamification will be used to try to make it possible. A physical or logical system will be used to trace devices and components from the beginning. To increase the safety and the second useful life or recycling, artificial intelligence and component detection solutions will be adopted.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TVg_y_IkFe4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This project is co-funded by the ERDF and the Government of Catalonia funds and is part of the program of research and innovation in Advanced Digital Technologies.
