We need to increase the resource productivity of the global economy (eg the amount of water or energy or land needed for producing a ton of biomass; amount of energy per ton of steel, etc) by at least tenfold over the next 10-20 years to stay within a safe operating space for humanity and in the process, generate a USD 3 trillion innovation opportunity.
In this context, we enable resource-intensive industries to realize a step change in resource productivity. Their operational context is becoming increasingly complex in space and time because of the explosive combination of the interdependence of natural resources (water, energy, food, materials, land, ecosystems) and the ever-increasing frequency and impacts of climate extremes around the world.
