Seabed mining offers a unique US $20 trillion opportunity to extract critical minerals that are essential for batteries, EVs, and other green technologies.   In this Viewpoint, Arthur D. Little explores the economic potential and environmental impact of seabed mining as an alternative to traditional land-based mining, which faces challenges due to declining ore grades, stricter environmental regulations, and rising production costs.   Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dj3SHYX3   #seabedmining #mining #batteries 

With over 35 million buildings slated for renovation in this decade, current approaches and mechanisms are not sufficient to deliver on the European “Renovation Wave” ambitions.   There needs to be a paradigm change to deliver value and leverage innovative private funding on top of sector subsidies.   This Viewpoint from Arthur D. Little puts the stakes and challenges in perspective and provides concrete recommendations to improve training, ecosystem development, sales approaches, innovation funding, and monitoring the results of individual homeowner choices, some of which can also be applicable to industrial and commercial segments.

Growing global mega challenges and rising competition mean that generating a steady stream of breakthrough innovations is central to organizational success. However, traditional corporate structures and capabilities are geared toward supporting incremental innovation programs, which require unique processes and skills.   Yet what we need today is a new way of industrializing breakthrough innovations to create a portfolio of successes that support corporate growth objectives — the Breakthrough Innovation Factory (BIF).   Arthur D.

AI is revolutionizing industries, driving unprecedented growth in data center infrastructure. As demand for high-performance computing surges, managing power consumption and cooling needs becomes a challenge. Discover how liquified natural gas (LNG) can be a sustainable solution to optimize energy use, maximize data center value, and reduce cooling efforts. Learn more about strategic ways to enhance data center power needs in our latest Viewpoint. Explore the full report here: https://lnkd.in/gHZr-jHW #DataCenters #AIEvolution #EnergyEfficiency 

No matter how successful the world is at mitigating global warming, many of the impacts of climate change are already underway and will greatly affect the future of humanity, society, and business. There is an unavoidable need to adapt to climate change, alongside efforts to reduce emissions and achieve net zero targets. For businesses, this implies a requirement to consider adaptation as part of any forward-looking strategy. Arthur D. Little discusses here: https://bit.ly/3zfOlay   #climatechange #adaptation
