Professor Steve Evans MAE, FIET, FLSW, FIEMA, FRSA, CEng is Director of Research in Industrial Sustainability at the University of Cambridge.

My work is always trans-disciplinary and focuses on solving real-world problems at the pioneering edge. We call this action research. I study the interactions between technology, people and money to find solutions that will help us to have a thriving industry that operates within planetary boundaries, and changes at the speed and scale that the planet needs. I have founded various cleantech start-ups and served as Special Advisor to the UK House of Lords. I was recently elected to serve as vice-President of Academia Europaea.
