LAUNCH NORDIC IS A GLOBAL INNOVATION PLATFORM BY:
IKEA, NOVOZYMES, KVADRAT, 3GF & THE DANISH MINISTRY OF THE ENVIRONMENT, VINNOVA, REGION SKÅNE, MALMØ STAD, THE CAPITAL REGION OF DENMARK AND THE FUND FOR GREEN BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
In collaboration with LAUNCH Founders: NASA, NIKE, USAID & U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
50% of emmission
Nearly half of the total IKEA carbon emission – 15 mio. tons – are originating from the raw material we use.
CO2
Only 1% of plastic is bio-basedOnly 1 percent of all plastics produced in society today are bio-based plastics – this out of a total global plastic production of 8 tones pr. second!
P
750 mio.
750 mio. people do not have access to fresh drinking water. Farming, dyeing and manufacturing of materials are all water intensive processes.
Hazardous chemical
Hazardous Chemicals still exists in products and materials we use in our every day life.
We need to collaborate
To transform the making of materials we need to collaborate to overcome systemic roadblocks and scaling of new sustainable innovations.
LAUNCH NORDIC IS A GLOBAL INNOVATION PLATFORM BY:
IKEA, NOVOZYMES, KVADRAT, 3GF & THE DANISH MINISTRY OF THE ENVIRONMENT, VINNOVA, REGION SKÅNE, MALMØ STAD, THE CAPITAL REGION OF DENMARK AND THE FUND FOR GREEN BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
In collaboration with LAUNCH Founders: NASA, NIKE, USAID & U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
LAUNCH NORDIC IS MADE IN COLLABORATION WITH LAUNCH FOUNDERS: NASA, NIKE, USAID & U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
LAUNCH NORDIC GOALS:
1. ENGAGE THE SYSTEM IN GREENING THE VALUE CHAIN OF MATERIALS
2. HELP FORM PRECOMPETITIVE INDUSTRY COLLABORATIONS TO DRIVE SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS
3. IDENTIFY AND HELP SCALE SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS IN MATERIALS

LAUNCH SYSTEM MAP 2014
THE LAUNCH NORDIC INNOVATION CHALLENGE 2014 CALLED FOR INNOVATIONS WITHIN TEXTILES, FABRICS AND FIBERS
WE MATCH THE SELECTED INNOVATORS WITH 30 KEY INDUSTRY PLAYERS, INVESTORS, TOP ACADEMIA AND GOV. OFFICIALS TO HELP THEM SCALE THEIR INNOVATION GLOBALLY.
WE WORK WITH THE GLOBAL GREEN GROWTH FORUM (3GF) ALLOWING THE BEST OF OUR INNOVATORS TO PRESENT THEIR INNOVATION TO LEADING CEO’S AND SVP’S FROM RELEVANT COMPANIES PIONEERING GREEN GROWTH
DISRUPTIVE INNOVATION FESTIVAL LAUNCH NORDIC COLLABORATES WITH THE ELLEN MACARTHUR FOUNDATION IN SCOUTING FOR DISRUPTIVE INNOVATIONS INTERNATIONALLY, AND TO SHOWCASE AND SCALE THE BEST ONES.
NEW MATERIALS & FEEDSTOCKLAUNCH NORDIC THEME 2015
HOW CAN WE THROUGH ALTERNATIVE FEEDSTOCK AND NEW TYPES OF MATERIALS SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE SUSTAINABILITY THROUGHOUT
PRODUCTION, MANUFACTURING, USE AND RECYCLING.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR TRANSFORMATIVE INNOVATIONS WITHIN ALL TYPES OF MATERIALS IN THE THINGS WE WEAR, OUR FURNITURE AND DURABLE
HOUSEHOLD GOODS (NOT ELECTRONICS).
