Three working groups coordinate the SusChem activities: R&D&I, Advocacy/Outreach and Coordination. The R&D&I group includes the three key SusChem technology areas: Industrial Biotechnology, Materials Technology, and Reaction & Process Design. The Advocay/Outreach group covers overarching innovation related issues, and the Cooperation group is responsible for SusChem's relation to other groups, bodies and networks relevant to the achievement of SusChem's vision.
The technologies and activities covered by SusChem will be at the heart of future sustainable development initiatives and are critical to continuing and increasing competitiveness of European enterprises across all sectors.
The research topics brought forward by SusChem address the great challenges and needs faced by our society today including energy use, transport, health, and communication technology. Our fundamental goal is to contribute to a sustainable quality of life for all Europe’s citizens.
As part of this goal SusChem is working to build a supportive environment in Europe for innovation and research in partnership with society.
