Nature functions as the ultimate innovation ecosystem. For 3.8 billion years it has developed and refined strategies that are efficient, circular and resilient. Everything is connected, resources are used optimally, and waste streams become new building blocks. This principle underpins the Nature’s Intelligence Business Model (NI Business Model), in which companies learn to operate like natural ecosystems: adaptive, regenerative and circular. In this course you learn to apply these principles in business development, focusing on the primary process and environmentally friendly operations such as sustainable procurement, energy management, waste reduction and regenerative value chains.
