<p>In addition to this, it also published an exclusive blog post on its web portal. The platform expressed its enthusiasm concerning this endeavor. I3-Lab reportedly plays the role of a state-of-the-art research project at Imperial College London. According to the platform, the IOTA Foundation donated up to £1M to fund the initiative. Imperial also intends to provide additional funding.</p>
<p>Apart from that, the European Union and the UK Research and Innovation will also provide more grants to support it. The hosting of I3-Lab will reportedly take place at iCUBE. It is a devoted space serving as a hub for revolutionizing sustainability research. I3-Lab’s complete name is Imperial IOTA Infrastructure Lab. It will pay considerable attention to the development and utilization of digital instruments strengthening the circular economy.</p>
<p>The platform noted that the traditional business models connect resource usage to economic progress. This reportedly results in unsustainable activities. The circular economy targets to decouple the respective relationship by prioritizing sustainability. It does with via recycling and reusing methods. The respective shift needs the latest production technologies and techniques that encourage sustainability.</p>
