A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome:
The Green Product Design Network (GPDN) began with a group of leaders from the University of Oregon with expertise in green chemistry, product design, business, and journalism and communication with an interest in inventing sustainable products that can be readily adopted and marketed to our larger society. Its goal is to take product design ideas from invention to the marketplace in a way that has a more expedient and lasting impact on society.
GPDN is the first university program in the country to strategically integrate green chemistry, product design, business and communications to impact the invention process in ways that can accelerate the introduction of greener products to the market.
GPDN has been selected as one of five key projects that the UO is supporting and highlighting as a major strategic initiative for the UO.
