He was responsible for the development of industrial production processes of fragrances and agrochemical intermediates. In 1999, he moved to the United States and took on a marketing function for customer synthesis services for the agrochemical industry. After his return to Germany in 2006, he assumed global business responsibility for the Agrochemical Custom Manufacturing product line. In 2008 he became responsible for the global innovation management of the Coating &amp; Adhesive Resins activities of Evonik.<\/p>\n<p>In 2012, Michael Korell won the Intrapreneurship Award of the Coatings &amp; Additives business unit of Evonik Industries AG with an idea to develop and market novel polymer-based energy storage materials. He was given the opportunity to fully concentrate on the realisation of this idea. He has built up a project team in the form of an internal start-up within the strategic innovation unit of Evonik and has recently launched the TAeTTOOz\u00ae technology. <\/p>\n\t<meta itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntityOfPage\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/WebPage\" itemid=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/person\/frederike-krebs\/\" content=\"Frederike Krebs\" \/><meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2020-06-17\" \/><meta itemprop=\"dateModified\" content=\"2020-09-29\" \/><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"G-STIC 2020\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/02\/cropped-G-STIC-logo-blue-horizontal.png\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/author\/lucmill\/\" \/><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Luc Meulewaeter\" \/><meta itemprop=\"interactionType\" content=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CommentAction\" \/><meta itemprop=\"userInteractionCount\" content=\"0\" \/><!DOCTYPE html>\n    \t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/03\/Frederike-Krebs-240x0-c-default.jpg\" alt=\"Frederike  Krebs \"\/>\n\t\t\t\t    \t\t\t\tMeet <br \/> Frederike  Krebs \n\t\t\t\t    \t\t\t\t Frederike  Krebs \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMechanical Engineering Industry Association\n        <a href=\"javascript:void(0)\" onclick=\"closeSide()\">&times;<\/a>\n        <br \/>\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/03\/Frederike-Krebs-240x0-c-default.jpg\" alt=\"Frederike  Krebs \"\/>\n     Frederike  Krebs \n\tMechanical Engineering Industry Association \n    \tAdviser Technical, Environmental &amp; Sustainability Affairs\n\n                        Circular Economy\n                        ICT\n\n\t<p>A coordinated digitization offensive could spur all players.

He is a PhD candidate at NTNU and an international ISO expert contributing to the new Circular Economy ISO\/TC 323 standard. <\/p>\n<p>With a background as an IT solution architect and a mechanical engineer, Eivind is convinced that the sustainable transition must be a digital one. In his own research and doctoral studies, he is particularly interested in how we can create new and smart circular economy solutions through the increased use of artificial intelligence. His research therefore focuses on bridging the gap between the digital world and sustainability through the strategic use of information systems and IT business value for circular economy. As the work package leader of a large 3-year Nordic action research project, he combines first-hand industrial insights from leading Nordic companies with novel research frameworks and tools. <\/p>\n\t<meta itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntityOfPage\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/WebPage\" itemid=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/person\/raik-kulinna\/\" content=\"Raik Kulinna\" \/><meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2020-09-17\" \/><meta itemprop=\"dateModified\" content=\"2020-10-19\" \/><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"G-STIC 2020\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/02\/cropped-G-STIC-logo-blue-horizontal.png\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/author\/katleenvandormael\/\" \/><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Katleen Vandormael\" \/><meta itemprop=\"interactionType\" content=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CommentAction\" \/><meta itemprop=\"userInteractionCount\" content=\"0\" \/><!DOCTYPE html>\n    \t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/09\/Raik-Kulinna-240x0-c-default.jpg\" alt=\"Raik Kulinna\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t    \t\t\t\tMeet <br \/> Raik Kulinna\n\t\t\t\t    \t\t\t\t Raik Kulinna\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSAP\n        <a href=\"javascript:void(0)\" onclick=\"closeSide()\">&times;<\/a>\n        <br \/>\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/09\/Raik-Kulinna-240x0-c-default.jpg\" alt=\"Raik Kulinna\"\/>\n     Raik Kulinna\n\tSAP \n    \tGlobal Lead for Waste, Recycling, and Environmental Services\n\n                        Circular Economy\n                        ICT\n\n    \tMeet  Raik Kulinna\n                    \t            \t                                                \t\t                \t                <p>26\/10\/2020, 18:05 &#8211; 18:20<\/p>\n                <p> Presenting Circular Economy accelerated by Digital Transformation: SAP&#8217;s Point of View during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gstic.org\/2020\/themes\/circular-economy\/#programme\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digital technologies and novel data sources<\/a> deep dive session.<\/p>\n\tBiography\n    <p>Raik Kulinna is globally responsible for the solution management for waste, recycling, and environmental services companies at SAP.
