  2. Recession: Time to Innovate • 1923-1933 Recession: Polyethylene Discovered: 1932-1933 by ICI, UK • 1957 Recession: Semi-conductors to market: 1st Time • 1957: Burger King Corp. a Recession Start-up: Now 11,000 locations in 65 countries • 1974 Recession: Microsoft was born • Early 1980s Recession: Tech boom of last decade • During great depression: Hewlett Packard • Innovation During Recession: Position Businesses Strongly & Uniquely. Market Needs Change Innovation Strategy Recession: Asses The Current Focus of R&D: Identify: Future Needs Success Mantra for Innovations: Exploiting Unique Intellectual Capital Market Dynamics New Ideas Beyond Bioethanol, Biodiesel: Biorefinery: Key to Economic Recovery

  3. Biochemicals Fine chemicals Bioeconomy: A Reduced Carbon Economy Bioethanol Biogas Biobutanol Bio- Electricity Bio-Fuels Biodiesel Bioenergy Gift of Agri-culture A. J.
