Wall of love for Arise Innovations Impact Stories

Sebastien Charles

Corporate R&D Climatetech Portfolio Lead at ZEISS

Arise is my “go-to” business partner to evaluate ideas and businesses I initiate that are related to green/sustainable chemistry. It's combined expertise in science, chemistry, “lab-to-market”, grants, and finance. As all this knowledge is centralised within one agile structure, it makes it very easy and efficient for me to fast track proof-checking ideas or reflecting on decisions I have to take. I highly recommend the service.
