Chaden Diyab

Intentional Expert in Technology and innovation transfer in pollution, energy issues, Both my past and my passion is to be an active citizen in the world. Born in Africa raised in MENA region and Europe, I cultivated at an early age a taste of the use of an interface as a means to share knowledge, but with a specific goal -- to allow the development of both human and city, together at the same time. I consider the creation of solutions that are all at once complex, simple, and smart to be one of the biggest challenges in our increasingly sophisticated-- and at times confusing -- world.

As a citizen of the world, I want to be able to live in a “green” city -- one that is simultaneously respectful of all aspects within it, peaceful, and fertile. Due to my influences from my background and culture, I told myself that one couldn’t exist without the other. This is an ideal city in which the well-being of man is in harmony with that of various aspects, including air, water, energy, and waste management. Clean technologies are therefore my focus.

It is in this way that everything began : it started with my journey to receive my PhD specializing in the depollution of water and soil . My inclination to meet others lead me towards projects involving challenges faced by large groups, who are in need of sustainable development solutions. Early on, I had observed a relation between those that had the means to solve problems that other parties had, particularly the sort of issues our cities face in the 21st century.
