Matís' annual report for the operating year 2012 has been published. The report places great emphasis on value creation and how the food and biotechnology industry can be the backbone of sustainable value creation for the Icelandic nation.
It is important that the knowledge becomes a product and a value
At Matís, emphasis is placed on utilization and market thinking in all projects and activities of the company, because the rapid dissemination and utilization of knowledge is no less important than the basic research itself when it comes to products on the market. There are great opportunities for Matís to implement and market the results of research and development projects, which will lead to increased value creation for the Icelandic industries and to prosperity for the public in Iceland.
Value creation is therefore a key word in all of Matís' work, whether it is in collaboration with parties in Iceland or abroad. The annual report shows just a few examples of projects where Matís has played a role and has already returned value to the parties involved in the projects, whether looking at Matís as a company, its employees, customers or owners, ie. the Icelandic state.
The report can be found here.
