Bio:
Adam Lowry is an entrepreneur, scientist, designer, and author. He believes that design has the power to change our world and that business is our greatest vehicle for positive social and environmental benefit. It is at the intersection of these beliefs that Adam has focused his work. Adam is co-founder and co-CEO of Ripple Foods, a producer of plant-based milks. In 2000, Adam cofounded Method Products, the leading innovator in stylish and sustainable cleaning and home-care products. Method has been ranked No. 7 on the Inc. 500, and No. 16 on Fast Company's list of the 50 most innovative companies in the world. Previously as chief greenskeeper at Method, Adam focused on bringing sustainable innovations to the Method business. He also directs the sustainability aspects of product design, sourcing, production, and marketing. Prior to founding Method, Adam worked as a climate scientist at the Carnegie Institution for Science Department of Global Ecology, where he developed software products for the modeling of climate change. That public sector experience, combined with his earlier experience designing environmentally preferred automotive products, formed the nucleus of his unique approach of commercial environmentalism. Adam has been honored as one of Fortune's 40 Under 40 and is a Clinton Global Citizen Award recipient from the Clinton Global Initiative for his pioneering work on sustainable business and product design. Adam is a Young Global Leader at the World Economic Forum and a contributor to the Huffington Post and Treehugger.com. In 2011, Adam and his co-founder Eric Ryan published their second book, The Method Method, which reveals their secrets to outcompeting the giants of the consumer products industry. He holds a BS in chemical engineering from Stanford University. He is a Fellow of the second class of the Catto Fellowship Program and a member of the Aspen Global Leadership Network.
