The largest use of bioinformatics is currently in pharmaceutical discovery, but new and far-reaching opportunities including risk assessment, safety, personalization, diagnostics, and traceability are making bioinformatics impactful across multiple industries, including food and agriculture.
Lux Research predicts that a renewable energy supply chain will take decades to establish, but can be cost-effective versus domestic wind and solar in Northern Europe, Southeast Asia, Japan, and Korea
All healthcare providers will be impacted by the adoption of these new technologies, which also offer opportunities to solve major challenges in healthcare, including rising costs, chronic diseases and aging, and physician burnout.
In our new report, “Emerging Materials Opportunities for the Apparel Industry,” we highlight four key megatrends that are driving this shift: the need for sustainability, functionality and differentiation, minimizing supply chain risks, and the trend toward personalization.
A host of digital innovations address the growing pressure to increase overall efficiencies and minimize risks within a rapidly evolving supply chain. Supply chain risks have been making headlines recently with the disruptions caused by the coronavirus.
Plant-based protein production has grown dramatically in order to meet the increasing demand coming from the swelling global population, expected to reach 10 billion by 2050. In our new report “Plant Proteins: Present & Future,” our experts evaluate 24 crops and their attractiveness as plant protein sources.
In our new report “Making Sense of Sustainability,” Lux addresses three primary questions: whether companies should bother with sustainability at all, how to set the right goals, and how to incorporate sustainability into strategy.
“Despite the considerable amount of hype and attention Hyperloop has received and the potentially important role it could play in decarbonizing long-range transit, the concept remains more or less unproven, and serious questions remain about its economic feasibility,” says Lux Research Senior Analyst Christopher Robinson.
Electrolysis technologies provide an opportunity for the chemical sector to decarbonize its supply chain and use renewable electricity as an alternative to oil and gas feedstock.
Synbio has enabled the creation of organisms that use fermentation to produce a wide variety of chemicals from renewable feedstock, which Lux predicts in its new report, “Strategies for Synbio Success,” will evolve this decade from creating niche, environmentally friendly products to creating new molecules not available with current technology.
