EDITOR'S CHOICE VIDEO
William Olson of Seagate on materials industry and sustainability
MRS Bulletin Material Matters
“You can design [a product] for the next step. You can design so it can be easily dissembled. You can design for it to be easily made for something else.”
MRS Bulletin’s Anke Weidenkaff from the University of Stuttgart talks with William Olson, who is responsible for product sustainability at Seagate Technologies located in the greater Chicago area. The interview took place at the 2016 MRS Meeting in Phoenix.
