Essere sostenibili non vuol dire altro che essere in grado di durare nel tempo. Ma per durare nel tempo bisogna essere capaci di cambiare e di farlo rapidamente. E questo processo si chiama innovazione. La sostenibilità quindi non è solo una questione etica, ma una sorta di spirito di sopravvivenza. Innovare, però, può essere molto faticoso e richiedere tantissime risorse in termini di tempo e denaro. Andrea Geremicca ci spiega quali sono questi fattori e come possiamo fare per aiutare il nostro cervello a superare la fatica di proiettarsi nel futuro. ENG: All that being sustainable means is being able to last. But in order to last, one needs to be able to change, and to do so quickly. This process is called innovation. Sustainability is therefore not only an ethical matter, but also one of survival. Innovating, though, can be very laborious, exacting a vast amount of time and money. Andrea Geremicca will illustrate which factors are involved and how we can help our mind sustain the effort of casting ourselves into the future. ANDREA GEREMICCA E' direttore del Master in Innovazione e Imprenditorialità alla Rome Business School e dello European Institute for Innovation and Sustainability. Andrea Geremicca è Direttore dell’Istituto Europeo per l’Innovazione e la Sostenibilità (EIIS) e professore presso la LUISS. Ha frequentato la Harvard Business School Executive nel 2018 studiando come guidare l’innovazione in grandi aziende e/o organizzazioni. Nel 2016 ha frequentato la Singularity University presso il NASA Research Park nella Silicon Valley, esplorando gli impatti delle tecnologie emergenti sulla nostra società. Andrea è direttore del Master in Innovation and Entrepreneurship della Rome Business School, advisor e angel investor di diverse startup internazionali.

Does it make a woman a bad mother to work? Does it make her a bad feminist to stay home? It was these types of questions that left Andrea Stang reeling after her daughter was born in 2015 and she made several big life transitions. She's thinking it was those same questions that led to 4,000 women leaving Wichita. Andrea Stang is a leading change maker in Wichita. Her entrepreneurial journey was sparked from isolation and disillusionment in her 8-5 career. When she noticed that other accomplished women felt similarly, Andrea founded The Hive, a women-focused coworking and community space for entrepreneurs and professionals craving connection. Her mission through The Hive is to promote authentic friendships and actionable support. She loves the magic of meeting someone with an idea in infancy and connecting her to a community that helps her grow it into a success story. Today she's here to share the importance of such a space.

We could use bio waste instead of mineral oil to produce plastic. Is this a modern fairy tale or already a reality? In her TEDx Talk, Andrea explains how we are already able to produce plastic from sources like chicory roots or grass and shares her vision & concepts for on-farm biorefineries that help to recycle nutrients in a sustainable way. Andrea Kruse studied chemistry at the University of Heidelberg and after having received her Ph.D. at the University of Heidelberg and the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (KIT today), she became junior group leader and later group leader in Karlsruhe. For her habilitation at the University of Darmstadt, Andrea focused on new concepts for the production of hydrogen from carbohydrates, one of the major components of biomass. Since 2012, Andrea is a professor for conversion technologies of bio-based resources at the University Hohenheim and has, among other research focuses, great interest in the conversion of biomass into basic chemicals and energy carriers. Besides her research efforts and lectures, Andrea is board member of a variety of committees and institutes as e.g. the Deutsches Biomasseforschungszentrum (DBFZ) in Leipzig.
