AIA2018 - Katrin Scholz-Barth - Innovation: Problems Worth Solving

Editor's Notes

  1. How can we solve these Big Issues? Magic ? Games ? Biomimicry ? Maximizing Impact ? Sustainability and Carbon-Neutrality may be as abstract as the internet at the beginning of the 19th century. investing in people, environment, and economy. Similar to the Qatar National Vision 2013. The diversity in origin, background, and education results in a great difference of understanding and provides different frames of references for sustainability. To bridge the difference, the intent of this introductory sustainability lecture is to find a common denominator to convey what Sustainability actually means for you and for your respective industries – and to seize the opportunity for dialogue and action.
  2. Supply Chain: from linear to circular Marketing: take clues from nature Waste Management: make it edible Acknowledge root cause of problem Re-think: Combine Form and Function / Use Innovative edible Materials Reinvent Fire from Fossil to renewable Form new Connections and Networks Critical Design Thinking
  3. Benjamin Franklin once said “If you know how to spend less than you get, you have the philosopher’s stone.” Not as easy as a diet or switching to gluten-free pasta We need to look beyond our waistlines and think ambitiously.“ solve for climate change and poverty at the same time, by expanding access to energy to many more people and heavily investing in innovation all over the planet. Investing in employee relations, community, environment, governance The goals is not to have the longest train, but to arrive at the station first using the least fuel.
  4. Common denominator: “Innovation Inspired by Nature” by Janine Benyus - collecting and funneling water like plants - weaving fiber like a spider - building air conditioning like in a termite mount production of color by microscopically structured surfaces to interfere with visible light a wild way to get a drink using CO2 as feedstock
  5. Narayana Peesapaty is the innovator behind edible cutlery
  6. Sustainability is an opportunity! Not a declaration! It is questioning Business-as-usual Carbon Neutrality. Decarbonizing the economy are the keywords but what does all of that mean? Our way of making things is heat-beat-treat manufacturing - carving things out of the earth with 96% leaftover, waste, only 4% product. Or slash-and-burn agriculture. Life can not afford this. The Vision for Sustainability is to learn from nature: 3 questions: How does life make things. How does life make the most of things. How does life make things disappear. The goal is to decouple economic growth from carbon emission to meet our current needs without compromising the needs of the generations for the next 3.5 Bill years.
  7. Innovations based on food waste - waste-to-protein-platform: produce feed components for feedlots (chicken, pets, fish). Breeding flies to harvest fly larvae to manufacture: MagMeal. an insect based protein: natural and healthy chicken and fish farm feed MagOil. extracted fat. MagSoil. nutrient rich soil conditioner. Compost from the operation.
  8. Decarbonization - reducing and eliminating emissions from production and economic growth
  9. Sustainability as your strategic advantage. Business strategy - operational execution - to reduce capital employed. Know at which point you add value! Could be anywhere along the value and supply chain. CSR - doing good. Comfort Zone Scale up plant in Ras Laffan to get closer to CO2 feedstock
  10. Sustainability as your strategic advantage. Business strategy - operational execution - to reduce capital employed. Know at which point you add value! Could be anywhere along the value and supply chain. CSR - doing good. Comfort Zone Scale up plant in Ras Laffan to get closer to CO2 feedstock
  11. Sustainability as your strategic advantage. Business strategy - operational execution - to reduce capital employed. Know at which point you add value! Could be anywhere along the value and supply chain.
  12. “The Outsiders - Eight Unconventional CEOs and their radically Rational Blueprint for Success” by William Thorndike Moral principles and business successSuccess factors: expertise capacity will! => individual will - transfer to collective will (motivation) transparency
  13. ... we have to change the tone of the conversation. “There is no way you can deliver victory without optimism,” she says. the path itself towards a decarbonized and more resilient economy is legally binding. from the impossible to the now unstoppable if you really want to change a culture…. Reward behaviors, not just outcomes!
