Last Friday, our interns put our sustainability values into action by volunteering with FABSCRAP, an organization committed to ending commercial textile waste and maximizing the use of unused fabric. Through their hard work and dedication, our interns helped save and recycle an estimated 300-550 lbs of fabric! We are incredibly proud of their efforts to make a positive impact on our environment. 🌱✨ #TeamMadewell #Interns #Sustainability

In 2050, and preferably sooner, our collective goal is to make raw materials, products, and processes climate-neutral, with at least an 80% circularity rate. Closing the loops is crucial, and we are fully committed to contributing to this cause with our cutting-edge technology and product: Epsilon M. We are excited to share our recent involvement in an MIT-R&D (Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland (RVO)) project, where, together with CORE CHANGEMAKERS, we've dedicated months to developing a high-tech prototype. This innovation is designed to detect and extract valuable metals from residual ash. Notably, our technology can identify various non-ferrous materials and has the potential for in-line use in industrial processes. We strongly believe in the power of collaboration and knowledge-sharing. Recently, Michiel Poppink attended the Internship Fair at Hogeschool Utrecht to connect with the next generation. We're actively building an open flow of knowledge and provide opportunities for research. We extend an invitation to students to join us on both the technological and marketing front. Whether your passion lies in engineering or marketing, there's a place for you. International business students, in particular, can play a vital role in launching this groundbreaking technology while gaining valuable experience in the field of metal recycling. The Internship Fair was a fantastic platform for us to engage with enthusiastic and passionate students and teachers. We had meaningful conversations about sharing industry insights with the next generation, among whom our former intern Andreea Sabau. We are eagerly looking forward to guiding and working alongside international business students who share our vision. If you are interested in joining us on this exciting journey, please don't hesitate to reach out for more information. Let's work together towards a sustainable and circular future!

🌟 Reflecting on My Internship Journey in Applied Materials🌟 I recently wrapped up my incredible 6-month internship at Applied Materials, and what an enlightening experience it has been! 🚀 As an Industrial Engineering student, diving into the heart of this cutting-edge industry has been both challenging and rewarding. 💡 Lessons Learned 💡 The experience has been a treasure trove of lessons. Every day, from optimizing manufacturing processes to understanding the intricate steps between technology and production efficiency, brought a new learning opportunity. Here are a few key takeaways: 1️⃣ Efficiency is Key: Witnessing firsthand how small changes in processes can lead to substantial gains in efficiency was mind-blowing. It reinforced the importance of continuous improvement. For example, in one of my projects, I had the opportunity to identify the amount of idle time machine tests have using Python, by eliminating this inefficiency, it will improve the whole manufacturing process! 2️⃣ Collaboration is Everything: Working shoulder to shoulder with cross-functional teams emphasized the power of collaboration. The magic happens when diverse minds unite for a common goal. During the last phase of my internship, I worked with colleagues from other departments to develop the current dashboard used in the factories using web development languages. 3️⃣ Adaptability is a Superpower: The semiconductor industry moves at lightning speed. Being adaptable and open to change became second nature, and it’s a skill I’ll carry forward. 🔍 Peek Into the Semiconductor World 🔍 Being part of the journey in the semiconductor world unveiled the complexities behind the chips powering our daily lives. From concept to creation, witnessing the manufacturing stages was awe-inspiring. It's remarkable how the tiniest components contribute to monumental technological advancements. 🙌 Gratitude and Looking Ahead 🙌 A massive shoutout to the incredible mentors and colleagues at Applied Materials. Thank you Kevin Chen Xiaojie, Emily Su, C K Sowmithri and other colleagues from the IE department! Their constant guidance and support transformed this internship into an invaluable experience. I am immensely grateful to the HR team in Applied Materials Lidya Suryani for not only paving the way for this incredible learning opportunity but also organising incredible events for interns to participate in and multiple networking sessions! As I bid adieu to this chapter, I'm excited to apply these learnings and insights to my future endeavours at the Georgia Institute of Technology next semester. The semiconductor industry has left an indelible mark on my career path, and I can’t wait to see where these lessons take me next!

Congratulations to all MANE interns! I am grateful to have had the opportunity to share and celebrate my accomplishments with a final presentation. Continuing to develop valuable professional communication and public speaking skills, I was able to speak about an overview of my projects, things I've learned as well as my contributions to the company. One of my most fun projects was leading the interactive Waste Sort Education & Data Collection event. Trash can contaminate recyclable material if it’s sorted incorrectly, and recyclables never get a new life if they’re sent to the landfill. I was responsible for coordinating these events, sending communication, as well as facilitating this activity. I gathered volunteers from upper management to get their hand dirty and re-sort breakroom trash. We discussed common recycling mistakes and filmed the event to create an education video. After analyzing the weight data, we found that the trash bins contained about 12% of materials that should’ve been recycled, while recycling bins contained almost 20% of contaminating trash. As a step forward towards MANE’s Zero Waste to Landfill goal, we want to improve these numbers. I created these educational posters to communicate common mistakes. Providing education on how to effectively segregate recyclables from landfill trash will improve environmental awareness at MANE. Let's recycle right! My very first project was finding a sustainable alternative to single-use cutlery in the breakrooms. I researched options to replace plastic cutlery at each location and surveyed employees for feedback. We are now in progress of launching reusable stainless-steel cutlery at the Development Center, encouraging employees to reuse their own personal utensils, or a MANE-provided pouch set. I had lots of fun creating the design for this pouch with the slogan, “if you can’t reuse, refuse!” Making this drastic change to completely stop ordering plastic cutlery will motivate employees to make sustainable choices and promote MANE’s environmental values. These are just two of the many projects I was able to work on during my internship, and am leaving with many valuable new skills. I am beyond grateful to have had this opportunity to be MANE's Environmental Health and Safety Sustainability Intern this summer.

At Reata Engineering, we’re always looking forward. There’s no such thing as “good enough” at our Colorado machine shop—as soon as we get comfortable, we ask ourselves what we can do next. This mentality is central to everything we do, from maintaining a summer internship program to giving shop tours to competing precision machine shops (yes, you read that right). In the years of putting our shop out there and chasing the next evolution of manufacturing technology, we’ve realized something fundamental about our industry: The growth of the contract manufacturing industry requires participation from every machine shop—including yours.

At my internship, there is not much technology involved because it is all mainly based on flowers. The technology that is used though, is a calculator, printer and a cell phone. Melissa at Magnolia Blooms uses a calculator to help calculate the price of flower arrangements and individual flowers. She uses a printer to print out orders from her website and she takes phone calls on her phone to place orders. Overall, technology is not used often, but often enough to help the business progress and grow! #sfhsinterns #nebointerns #flowers #florist @magnoliabloomsfloral&gift
