LET'S BRING INNOVATION TO LIFE
Who we are and how we work
What distinguishes us
- Combinatorial innovation: We don’t always reinvent the wheel. We combine existing expertise with science, start-up ecosystems and industry partners to create new core competencies that deliver tangible benefits at Evonik. This saves time and minimises risks.
- The five ‘production lines’: We work in a structured manner. Across five parallel programmes, we pool global expertise from chemistry, engineering, marketing and project management.
- Entrepreneurial focus: For us, a project is only successful once every aspect of the business model’s application – from the associated production processes and value chains right through to marketability – has been resolved. We don’t think in terms of laboratory measurements, but in terms of market solutions.
- A global innovation network: The Innovation Factory operates within the world’s most dynamic ecosystems. Through our hubs – from the Cambridge Innovation Satellite in Boston to biotechnology research in Singapore and the Membrane Centre in Shanghai – we ensure direct access to talent and cutting-edge technologies.
- Partnership on equal terms: In future, we will combine our own expertise even more closely with external input from science, start-up ecosystems and industry partners. This will lead to faster development of technically and commercially robust solutions that deliver direct industrial benefits and meet real market requirements.
