Why the bio-based materials market is finally poised for growth
Trung Ghi, Phil Webster , Daniel Monzon, Michael Kolk
This is now changing rapidly, reinvigorating the market. Demand is growing, driven by increasingly environmentally conscious consumers and governments’ Net Zero targets requiring consumer-focused product companies to achieve sustainability. Finally, technology breakthroughs are bringing down production costs for bio-based materials, while improving their performance to make them comparable or superior to fossil-based counterparts.

Energy & Utilities
The rise of the energy community & its lifeline to the battery
Florence Carlot, Trung Ghi
Increased consumer engagement combined with growing availability of affordable, small-scale distributed energy resources (DERs), along with legislative changes, present opportunities for local energy community (LEC) initiatives, in which consumers can actively participate in optimizing their energy bills. These initiatives can protect consumers from high and extremely volatile energy prices. Moreover, opportunities are emerging for traditional and nontraditional market players to enable and facilitate these new community models.

Corporate sustainability – Using your ecosystem to sustain the ecosystem
Stefano Milanese, Carlo Stella, Martijn Eikelenboom, Trung Ghi, Florent Nansé
It has been nearly 25 years since the Brundtland Report introduced the modern concept of sustainable development, highlighting its three fundamental components – the environment, the economy, and society. Yet since then, despite the many global, regional, and local goals, pledges, and initiatives, society has been largely ineffective in transforming discussions around sustainability into concrete and strategic actions.

Oil & gas
When should national oil companies have subsidiaries?
Trung Ghi, Amer Hage Chahine
National oil companies (NOCs) are becoming ever more influential in today’s oil and gas environment, dominating production output and expanding their footprints beyond their local boundaries. With this growth and increase in influence, many NOCs have expanded their organizations over the years, creating subsidiaries and other holding companies, all of which were meant to ease management of resources, technology, and people.
