INNOGREEN

committed to eco-innovation and circular economy

INNOGREEN Research was established to better respond to growing demand from business, policy and academia to address the opportunities of circular economy and eco-innovation. Building on a shared trajectory of eco-innovation across different organisations, our founders published a book ‘Eco-Innovation: When Sustainability and Competitiveness Shake Hands’ in 2010. Ever since, we have remained committed to the search for win-win solutions towards a sustainable and circular society. In 2022, we were affiliated with the University of Alcalá (UAH) as a Research Group on Eco-innovation and Circular Economy. Today, we are well positioned to build further networks and a wider impact. Let´s start a conversation: info(at)innogreen.net.
