Innovation Management in Sustainable Chemistry - Gadi Rothenberg

Comprehensive resource on sustainable chemistry, bridging the skill gap between academic science education and innovation and entrepreneurship Innovation Management in Sustainable Chemistry links science with business. Written for science and engineering students with an interest in start-ups and business ambitions, it shows how sustainable chemistry can move from the lab into the real world. The book takes a hands-on approach, offering exercises and teaching by example. It gives students a solid base in sustainable chemistry and business principles, combined with real-life case studies, providing both theory and practice. Written by one of Europe’s leading academics, who is also an inventor and entrepreneur, the book starts by teaching the basics of sustainable chemistry, sustainable development, and the circular economy. It then focuses on tools for evaluating sustainable innovation projects and ideas. You will learn about business archetypes and narratives, business models, value creation, and value capture. Team composition, IP strategy, and raising capital are covered next, with guidance drawn from experienced professionals. The two foundation chapters are followed by seven real-life case studies.
