    Abstract
    The purpose of this webinar is to create a dialogue around innovation in ecological restoration. For example, what are the barriers to using innovation in ecological restoration? What research can inform how to overcome those barriers? Does the type of the innovation affect how likely it is to be successfully implemented in practice? Jakki’s webinar is based on her decade-long work in studying innovation in ecological restoration.

    Dr. Jakki Mohr is the Regents Professor of Marketing, and Fellow, Institute on Ecos ystems, at the University of Montana. Jakki studies challenges companies face in developing and commercializing break-through innovations, including a broad range of technologies ranging from scientific innovations to innovations in restoration and ecology.

    Her recent research is situated at the intersection of the natural world and business. For example, she studies the business of restoration, how companies use biomimicry (innovations inspired by nature, based on underlying biological mechanisms) to solve technical and engineering challenges, business impacts on nature, and the role of ecosystems in successfully commercialization innovations. She also manages the innovation & commercialization aspects of a large NSF grant to ensure that cutting-edge science finds its way into practice.
