In systems with interconnected parts, fixing one issue can cause unintended effects elsewhere—this is true in medical practices too. For instance, cobalt chromium levels are known to impact patient outcomes and pain. While hip surgeons routinely measure these levels, knee surgeons often do not, despite their relevance. This inconsistency highlights the complexities of medical decision-making and how perspectives can vary even within the same field. w/ David Langton #HealthcareInnovation #MaterialsBusiness #InfinityGrowth #LIVideo

Engineers face the challenge of balancing lightweight designs to save energy with the need for high-strength, durable components. Reducing fuel usage, which has a significant environmental impact, often starts with lightweight materials. Using lower-density materials in manufacturing helps achieve this balance, contributing to efficiency and sustainability. #SustainableEngineering #LightweightDesign #EfficiencyMatters #InfinityGrowth #MaterialsBusiness #LIVideo

The design stage is a critical point where 70–80% of a product’s long-term impact can be determined. Whether it’s environmental harm or service life outcomes, engineers and designers have the power to shape these effects early on. It’s a tool we’ve had for years—it’s just about using it effectively to create smarter, more sustainable solutions. #SustainableDesign #EngineeringImpact #Corrosion #MaterialsBusiness #InfinityGrowth #LIVideo

Over the last 10–15 years, the coatings industry has evolved significantly, particularly in health and safety. Formulators have worked to remove harmful components that were once common, creating products that are safer, healthier, and more environmentally friendly. This ongoing innovation reflects a commitment to sustainability and protecting both people and the planet. w/ Nicole deVarennes #CoatingsInnovation #HealthAndSafety #Sustainability #InfinityGrowth #MaterialsBusiness #LIVideo

The decision to transition into entrepreneurship often stems from personal and professional challenges. For many, working in male-dominated industries can make advancement difficult due to biased criteria. Balancing demanding work hours with family life, such as raising children, adds another layer of complexity. These factors drive the choice to create a path that offers both independence and flexibility, leading to new opportunities and a more balanced life. #Entrepreneurship #WorkLifeBalance #BreakingBarriers #InfinityGrowth #MaterialsBusiness #LIVideo

Exposure and support are key to opening doors for future generations in STEM. Being raised in environments where education is valued, with people who encourage and say, "This is possible," makes all the difference. Even when young minds don’t fully understand, simply being exposed to opportunities and possibilities is a powerful gift. Providing access, visibility, and support is how we inspire more people to pursue STEM and drive meaningful change.

Inspired by experiences working in the field as a woman engineer, the idea of creating a space for women engineers took shape. This led to the founding of a forum for women engineers in Qatar, which eventually grew into the Qatar Association for Women Engineers. A step toward empowering women, fostering connection, and building a stronger community in engineering. w/ Hanan Farhat, PEng, Ph D #WomenInEngineering #Empowerment #CommunityBuilding #InfinityGrowth #MaterialsBusiness #LIVideo
