Concrete Solutions, Operational today, on Major Societal and Environmental Issues; Biotechnologies are part of the Solution. They enable the transformation of Industrial Models, the implementation of Sustainable Alternatives in a more Resilient Economy, based on Renewable Living Resources… Green Tech refers to a type of Technology that is considered Environmentally Friendly based on its Production Process or its Supply Chain. Although the Market for Green Technology is relatively young, it has garnered a significant amount of Investor Interest due to increasing awareness about the Impacts of Climate Change and the depletion of Natural Resources.
Green Technology is an Umbrella Term that describes the use of Technology and Science to create Products and Services that are Environmentally Friendly. Green Tech is related to Cleantech, which specifically refers to Products or Services that improve Operational Performance while also Reducing Costs, Energy Consumption, Waste, or Negative Effects on the Environment.
