The Transformative Innovation Center had a soft launch in 2022 and specialises in the green transition, with a particular focus on how large-scale innovation can transform industries and sectors.

Indeed, sophistication enables us to increasingly take on “wicked problems”, which requires more elaborate partnering to garner the combined capabilities, resources, and momentum needed to make transformation happen.

The inaugural Chair in Transformative Innovation has yet to be appointed.
