The GreenScience Exchange is a "Think and Do" Tank. It is an offshoot of the NanoScience Exchange - www.nanoscienceexchange.org, which was founded in 2002 and is based in San Francisco, California. Both organizations put on events to help start-up companies understand and work with the important business and policy issues facing them.


"Start-up companies are chemists, mixing people and ideas and companies to form new ecologies of business that move economies."
-- Jim Hurd, BBC Radio, June, 2002
