- [Business Development vs. Sales: The Confusion](https://www.venturi-tribe.com/business-development-vs-sales/) - The confusion Hundreds of blogs have been written to explain the difference between business development and sales and yet the confusion keeps going. Every time I see a job description pass by of a “Business Development Manager”, the core tasks are often oriented to pure sales. Maybe it is psychological thing about the word ‘sales’.
- [Is mechanochemistry set to disrupt chemical manufacturing?](https://www.venturi-tribe.com/is-mechanochemistry-set-to-disrupt-chemical-manufacturing/) - Three years ago, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) published a list of ten chemical innovations that will change our world. IUPAC nominated reactive extrusion, a mechanochemical process, as one of the emerging technologies in chemistry with the potential to make our planet more sustainable. It was mentioned along with other significant innovations

This has been the benchmark for time-to-business of new materials. From Teflon over Velcro to diamond like carbon coatings, every time it took about this time span to finally become successful in the market (ref. 1). Graphene, first produced and identified in 2004, seems to be next in confirming the 20 years dogma.

However, there exists some confusion between the source of the feedstock and the eventual behavior in the environment
- [DDT and its parallels with plastics](https://www.venturi-tribe.com/ddt-and-its-parallels-with-plastics/) - Did you know that the use of DDT has lead to the eradication of malaria and significant reduction of typhus in Europe, North-America and many other parts of the world? Well, I didn't. So just a bit of history: DDT was first synthesised in 1874. DDT's insecticidal properties were discovered in 1939 by the Swiss

How about PFCs accumulating in every living being? While recently we all got concerned about microplastics that have been detected even in our bottled water there is very little talk about a phenomenon that has been around for many years and has contaminated about every living being: perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs). These chemicals are typically
