Consortium

alchemia-nova was founded in Vienna in the year 2000 by Hanswerner Mackwitz, an eco-pioneer of the first days. After his death in 2010, we restructured alchemia-nova and led it from a 2-person institute to a 30-person research and innovation organisation with an international profile. In 2006, we became Cradle to Cradle® partner. Ever since, they are fully dedicated to circular economy principles. alchemia-nova strength is creating out-of-the-box solutions by combining different disciplines. They connect the dots and use a systemic thinking approach for possible disruptive and game-changing innovations that are fit for future. The alchemia-nova vision is: A world in which we think in resource cycles A world in which “contaminants” become nutrients A world in which we focus on regeneration
