Sustainable Innovation

What does it mean?

Sustainable innovation is a process where sustainability considerations (environmental, social, financial) are integrated into company systems from idea generation through to research and development (R&D) and commercialization. This applies to products, services and technologies, as well as new business and organization models.

True to its pioneering spirit, CME has an exciting program, including industry luncheon meetings in New York; a new quarterly “Chemical Edge” Dinner Series in Houston in collaboration with Deloitte and NASA; the CME NASA Chemistry Symposiums featuring Nobel Laureates as well as industry and government leaders; and the CME STEM Leadership Awards event celebrating today’s industry leaders to enable those of tomorrow.
